Shodex - RI-101
Shodex RI-101 Refractive Index Detector
The unit features a full color LCD that allows the chromatographer to easily check the detector status as well as monitor the detector baseline in real time. An automatic start-up sequence allows the end user to purge, calculate noise and drift values and auto zero before a Ready status is indicated. Temperature can be set from 30 - 50°C in 1°C increments. The RI detector also has a solvent leak sensor that can generate an output signal that will shut down the pump in the unlikely event of a solvent leak inside the detector. A complete series of input/output signal terminals and an RS-232 port allows easy integration with any HPLC system. Extensive help screens and error alert messages guide the user in the event of unusual operation. A validation screen displays temperature, lamp voltage, lamp lilfe, span, noise and drift values thus making a cubersome task very easy.

Features of RI-101
- Equipped with color liquid crystal display, the detector monitors status of chromatograph in real time.
- The automatic start-up function automates complicated operations such as the substituting eluent in the reference cell and checking the baseline stabilization.
- The validation wizard achieves component validation with ease.
- Optimization of the temperature control method shortens the time for stabilization after the start-up and improves baseline stavility.
- The leak sensor automatically stops the pump in case of solvent leakage.
- External input and output terminals and RS232C communication ports permit advances automation of the system.
