Great results, necessary to adapt these instruments!

 

Average Rating 4.3

Application Area:

Implementation of Analytical Method Development by using QbD principles

To implement QbD concepts in analytical method development, necessary to generate the DoE in the screening experiments. Also, numerous experiments have to conduct to produce the MODR. Acquity Arc HPLC plays a pivotal role in fabricating chromatographic data without losing precision and accuracy. In addition, it is easy to operate with the Empower software. Service from the waters is easily accessible after installation in our laboratory. They will resolve the issues quickly. Overall it is a value-for-money product and helps to improve laboratory efficiency.

Versatile system

 

Average Rating 4.7

Application Area:

Assay and Related Substances on small molecules

The system has 2 flow paths and allows you to perform "normal" HPLC as well as entering the space of UHPLC. With the increase in pressure limits, using columns with smaller particle size is much easier. Although the system is not a "true" UHPLC, it allows one to see the impact of system dwell volume and as a result understand the impact on your separation.

Our lab currently has three ACQUITY Arc systems, with plans to add more in the immediate future to increase capacity. The systems run constantly and are critical to the business. These systems are highly effective in meeting the analysis needs of our lab, and I really don't think we could function without them. Compared to competitor HPLC systems that these replaced, the quality and integrity of the data is much higher, reproducibility was also improved. Analysts find the ACQUITY Arc system easier to use and less time is required to train users to a level of independence using the systems. For these reasons, ease of use received a 5-star rating. Post-sale service and support from the local Waters' service team is legendary! Service is prompt, thorough, courteous and compliant. Working in a regulated environment, the support after the sale is paramount and Waters' delivers exceptional support! For these reasons, both value for money, and after-sales care receive a 5-star rating. Looking at the complete package - instrument, software, support, qualification - Waters' offerings are, in my honest opinion, a fantastic value and worth every penny!

The ACQUITY Arc System is a quaternary-based, modern LC system for scientists working with established methods who are looking for the versatility and robustness required to bridge the gap between HPLC and UPLC while continuing to support validated assays.

The ACQUITY Arc System can replicate your established HPLC methods by compensating for these differences with unique features such as the Arc Multi-Flow Path technology and Gradient SmartStart. These innovative attributes enable seamless replication of your existing chromatographic results to meet your acceptance criteria without changes to validated gradient tables.

Get seamless and efficient transfer, adjustment, or improvement of methods from any LC platform without compromise in method integrity or changes to validated gradient tables.

The ACQUITY Arc System is enabled by Arc Multi-flow path technology, novel technology that enables the user to easily switch between HPLC and UHPLC operation by selecting the dwell volume that best fits the column separation. System reliability and robustness ensures product consistency and compliance with regulatory guidelines, all while minimizing downtown and inefficiencies.

With the ACQUITY Arc System, maximize productivity through combining system dispersion characteristics with efficient and rapid 2.x um UHPLC separations. Or, accommodate larger, 3.0 - 5.0 um particles. This provides the flexibility to support a wide-range of LC applications.

Get an LC-MS solution that's as easy to use as photodiode array detection. The ACQUITY Arc System is fully compatible with the ACQUITY QDa Detector, supporting routine analysis applications and expanding the information you can get from your system using the same Empower Software.

Features:

  • Quaternary solvent blending. Blend up to four solvents in any combination or proportion. Expand to up to nine solvent choices with the optional and integrated solvent-select valve for even greater flexibility.
  • Plug-and-play method compatibility with HPLC or UHPLC with the flip of a switch. Easily replicate or improve established methods by simply selecting Path 1 (HPLC) or Path 2 (UHPLC) without any manual user intervention. Automatically counteract differences in system dwell volume without the need to alter gradient table inputs.
  • Minimize carryover (<0.002%) by continuously cleansing the needle during the run with an advanced flow-through-needle design.
  • Flexible column management, providing stable, uniform temperature management with integrated pre-heating options to ensure method repeatability from lab to lab. Optional and integrated column selection valve provide fast, unattended column changeover.
  • Directly program gradients in units of pH and ionic strength with Auto●Blend Plus Technology, providing the ability to vary composition in even the smallest increments of pH. This eliminates the cumbersome and error-prone approach of manually preparing mobile phase solutions.
  • Ensure method repeatability from lab to lab with column heater and column heater/cooler options.
  • Maximize HPLC and UHPLC performance with a full line of optical detection options.
  • Push-button mass detection with the ACQUITY QDa Detector.
  • Compliance-ready. Qualification of laboratory instrumentation is an integral part of compliance with regulatory and quality standards such as GMP, GLP, ISO 17025, USP <1058>, and others. The ACQUITY Arc System supports Waters Empower based automated system qualification tool (SQT), which minimizes the time and cost associated with annual qualification.
  • Supported in both Empower and MassLynx Software.
