What to Look For
- System pressure rating: FPLC systems operate at low pressure (up to 3 MPa) - confirm compatibility with your column chemistry
- Flow rate range: Match pump flow rate range to your column dimensions and process scale
- Detector configuration: UV (280 nm) is standard; confirm conductivity, pH, and additional UV wavelength detectors as needed
- Software version: Confirm UNICORN or equivalent software version and license status
