CAPEL-103R/103RT , their upgraded automated version CAPEL-104/104T , and CAPEL-105/105M are high-performance
capillary electrophoresis instruments, equipped with a photometric detector. CAPEL-103R/103RT have
manually controlled samplers with 4 inlet and 2 outlet positions, and CAPEL-104/104T/105/105M have
autosamplers with 10 inlet and 10 outlet positions, the samples, rinsing and buffer solution being
fed automatically according to a preset program. The autosampler in CAPEL-104/104T/105 allows an
increase in number of samples analyzed to 7, and the customized software makes the analysis fully
automated. All instruments are equipped with a reversible polarity voltage supply units and with
a customized report outputs (hard copy and file). The CAPEL-103RT/104T/105/105M have a liquid cooling
system with temperature control for capillary cooling.
