CORTECS T3 VanGuard Pre-column, 120Å, 1.6 µm, 2.1 mm X 5 mm, 3/pk
Use the CORTECS T3 VanGuard Pre-column to protect your column from harm and to extend its lifetime. The lab equipment is ideally suited to work with the CORTECS T3 column as it is made using the same packing material as the column. The pre-column is a type of protective equipment that is installed between the injector and the analytical column and works by removing the chemical impurities and suspended solids from reaching the analytical column.
Since the CORTECS T3 VanGuard Pre-column is manufactured using the same high-performance packing materials that are used in all of Waters analytical columns, you can be certain that it will continue to perform and protect your column for a long time. The pre-column is designed and developed especially for situations where the increased capacity for biological fluid cleanup and/or temperature control is required.
The CORTECS T3 VanGuard Pre-column is also manufactured in a cGMP, ISO 9001 certified plant using ultra-pure reagents, like all other equipment offered by Waters. Additionally, each batch of the CORTECS T3 VanGuard Pre-column packing material is tested chromatographically with acidic, basic, and neutral analytes, and the results are held to the highest standards to assure excellent, reproducible performance every single time. Further, each pre-column is also tested and certified for its use, guaranteeing that it will deliver optimal performance, and enhance the selectivity, sensitivity, and speed of your analysis.

You may also be interested in the CORTECS T3 Column, 120Å, 1.6 µm, 2.1 mm X 50 mm, 1/pk which is designed to provide you with ultra-low column MS bleed, long lifetimes, and excellent peak shape. In addition, it is compatible with 100% aqueous mobile phases and offers excellent retention for polar and non-polar analytes.
Can Any Column Guard Be Used With Any Column?
For optimum performance, it is recommended that a column guard of the same brand and chemistry be used with the analytical column. This is to ensure that both equipment work at their best as the same brand will ensure that the guard is manufactured using packing material that is identical to that of the column, eliminating the risk of malfunctioning.
