Precision and CompatibilityEngineered for both analytical and semi-preparative HPLC, the Rheodyne 9725i ensures high sample accuracy and robust reliability under pressures of up to 4000 psi. It offers compatibility with standard 1/16 OD HPLC tubing and finger-tight PEEK fittings, making it adaptable for a variety of laboratory setups requiring leak-free, biocompatible performance.
Flexible Sample Loading OptionsThe injector supports both full and partial loop filling, with a standard loop capacity of 20 L and optional loops ranging from 5 to 200 L. This allows users to tailor their sample volume to the needs of their analytical workflow, enhancing flexibility for different application requirements.
Durable, User-Friendly DesignConstructed with PEEK wetted parts and stainless steel elements, the 9725i is lightweight, highly chemical-resistant, and easy to disassemble for routine cleaning. Its manual operation eliminates reliance on external power sources, while its long cycle life (>20,000 cycles) ensures cost-effective, dependable service in demanding environments.
FAQs of Rheodyne Model 9725i PEEK Injector:
Q: How do I install the Rheodyne 9725i PEEK Injector in my HPLC system?
A: To install the Rheodyne 9725i, connect the injector using standard 1/16" OD HPLC tubing and compatible finger-tight PEEK fittings. Ensure alignment of the six ports with your desired application (inject/load configuration) before mounting onto your instrument panel.
Q: What is the recommended process for cleaning and maintaining the injector?
A: Regular cleaning is straightforward, as the 9725i is easily disassembled. Flush the valve with compatible solvents after use and periodically clean or replace the rotor seal and stator to maintain optimal performance and extend the valves cycle life.
Q: When should I consider replacing the injection loop or rotor seal?
A: Replace the injection loop if you notice blockages, leakage, or wish to use a different sample volume. The rotor seal typically lasts over 20,000 cycles, but should be replaced if you encounter increased leakage or inconsistent sample injection.
Q: Where can I use the 9725i injector and what applications is it ideally suited for?
A: The 9725i is best used in analytical and semi-preparative HPLC applications requiring biocompatibility and high chemical resistance. Its versatility and durable design make it suitable for pharmaceutical, biotech, and research laboratories.
Q: What are the usage benefits of the PEEK construction in this injector?
A: PEEK construction provides excellent chemical resistance, biocompatibility, and non-metallic wetted surfaces, minimizing sample contamination and enabling use with a wide range of solvents and biological samples.
Q: How accurate and reproducible are sample injections using the Model 9725i?
A: The injector is engineered for high accuracy and reproducibility, with zero sample loss and precise flow path design. Proper maintenance ensures each injection remains consistent, providing reliable results for sensitive analyses.
