MarvelXACT™ UHPLC Connection Systems: Finger-tight with a “Click” Feedback

 

Ensure a Perfect Connection Every Time with the New MarvelXACT™
Fitting System for Trouble-free Liquid Chromatography

Our expertly designed MarvelXACT™ connection system takes the guesswork out of your process by eliminating the risk of under- and over-tightening with our patented torque-limiting mechanism. This unique feature provides a haptic “click” feedback when it reaches the optimum torque, assuring a perfect connection every time. Built with sturdy, bioinert PEEK and stainless steel, MarvelXACT™ can be connected and disconnected more than 100 times.

Product Specifications
Pressure Capability 19,000 psi (~1,310 bar) for routine use; up to 23,000 psi max overpressure for PEEK-lined versions; up to 29,000 psi max overpressure for stainless steel versions
Installation Method Finger-tighten until the first “click” feedback is received.
Tubing Type 1/32” OD flexible 316 stainless steel with 1/16” OD rigid tube ends
Fitting Type 10-32 threaded, PEEK fittings with 316 stainless steel threads
Wetted Materials PEEK-lined versions: PEEK | stainless steel versions: PEEK and 316 stainless steel
NOTE: The above performance specifications apply to use with appropriately-designed receiving ports under optimal conditions, using water for the testing process. If different conditions are used, the expected pressure threshold will be different.

Measurement conditions Mobile phase: Acetonitrile/ water = 60/40, Temperature: 25°C
The relationship between the inner diameter (R) of the pipe and the pressure (P) applied to the pipe is P= A/ R4 (A is a coefficient). If the inner diameter of the pipe is halved, the pressure applied to the pipe will be 16 times.
