QuickSplit™ Flow Splitters create accurate, reproducible split ratios using two or more fluid resistors in parallel flow paths. These fluid resistors are available in a wide range of values, making ratios of 1:1 to 20,000:1 possible. Our fluid resistors have extremely low internal volume. Delay volume on the splitter’s low side is as low as 100 nanoliters, depending on resistor cartridge selected. Low internal dead volume prevents excessive dispersion. While changes in flow rate and viscosity will affect the splitter’s back pressure, viscosity changes associated with gradient runs DO NOT impact the split ratio for post-column applications. Because of very low fluid resistor internal volume, solvent composition in both resistors at any instant in time is the same.
Significant pressure changes that occur during pre-column gradient runs may affect the split ratio accuracy. For these pre-column applications we recommend the A650 Automated Flow Splitter.
