The Mistral is a column thermostat that provides exact and reproducible temperature control. Large area heating plates guarantee a safe and stable operation at a temperature range from ambient+5°C up to 90°C, while forced air circulation ensures excellent temperature uniformity in the column area.
A temperature controlled column area contributes to the reproducibility of retention times. HPLC separations are more consistent at a constant temperature and some times more efficient at elevated or sub–ambient temperatures. With a temperature controlled column area room temperaturechanges will no longer affect your separations.
With the optional Peltier cooling the Mistral™ allows a temperature range from 5°C up to 90°C and temperature changes are achieved in shorter time.
An injector is mounted inside the oven to achieve a maximum temperature stability of the HPLC system. With the Mistral™ it is possible to perform temperature gradients to optimize a separation. The Mistral™ column thermostat is compatible with most HPLC instruments. It has a remote I/O connector for communication with other HPLC components.
