Dionex™ ICS-5000+ Hybrid HPIC™ System
Get best-in-class resolution, sensitivity, and throughput for even the most complex ICxIC (2D-IC) methods and trace level analyses. The versatile Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ ICS-5000+ Hybrid HPIC™ System provides faster separations without compromising resolution, thanks to its dual high-pressure channels: one optimized for capillary flow rates, the other for standard (4mm) or microbore (2mm). You'll save time and improve reproducibility with precise, automatic eluent generation and sample preparation. Choose from a wide variety of chemistries, detectors, and automation options to fit your needs.
Built on our top-of-the-line IC platform, this system provides the high performance, convenience, and flexibility of the Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ ICS-5000+ HPIC System with the power of parallel analytical and capillary channels.
Run two analyses concurrently on a single sample, analyze two samples, or perform advanced ICxIC (2D-IC) techniques. The Dionex ICS-5000+ Hybrid HPIC System is ideally suited for trace level determinations with high matrix concentrations, using a standard or microbore column in the first dimension to separate analytes from matrix, followed by a capillary separation in the second dimension. This method provides high sensitivity, enabling conductivity detection limits to rival those of mass spectrometry.
High Pressure, High Performance
- Fast, sensitive separations without sacrificing resolution—up to two times faster still with Fast IC columns
- Outstanding resolution using columns with small-diameter particles, thanks to high-pressure capability
- Continuous operation at up to 5000psi when configured as a Reagent-Free™ IC (RFIC™) system
- Optimized peak resolution with a choice of isocratic and electrolytic gradient separations on either channel, or optional quaternary low pressure gradients on the standard/microbore channel
- Flexible support for standard bore (3-7mm I.D.)and microbore (1-3mm I.D.) columns on one channel and capillary columns (0.2-0.6mm I.D.) on the other
- Wide variety of chemistries available in Thermo Scientific™ standard bore, microbore, capillary, and Fast IC columns
- Flexible, easy to configure, modular design
The Capillary Advantage
The capillary channel in this hybrid system presents added advantages:
- Always ready with 24/7 uptime and minimal calibration and equilibration time
- Up to 18 months of continuous operation on one Eluent Generation cartridge
- Small dead volumes for minimized peak dispersion and increased signal-to-noise ratio
- Reduced eluent disposal costs—only 15mL/day for continuous operation at 10µL/min
- Enhanced ease-of-use with Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ IC Cube™ capillary consumable cartridges
