Description
The Thermo Scientific Dionex VWD, part of the ICS Series, is a Variable Wavelength Detector (VWD) specifically designed for ion chromatography applications. Manufactured in December 2022, this unit offers high-performance UV-Vis detection with excellent sensitivity and a broad wavelength range of 190–900nm. Its dual-lamp setup ensures low baseline drift and high signal-to-noise ratio. Unique PEEK flow cells prevent metal contamination, making it ideal for routine chromatography. Though in fair condition with minor errors such as occasional error LED alerts, the detector is acknowledged by VWD3000 in Windows Device Manager. This detector does not include computer integration but is equipped with an easily operable USB connection for data collection. Despite its condition, it retains significant value and function for laboratory settings focused on precise ion chromatography analysis.
Technician comment
"Occasionally the error LED lights up when turning on the power and initializing. When checking in Windows Device Manager , it is recognized as VWD3000."
