Benefits
More flexibility with different valve
solutions.
• Column selection for method
development or multi-method
laboratories.
• Alternating column regeneration
für higher throughput.
• Sample clean-up, pre-con-
centration, sample stripping, etc.
for automated sample preparation.
Investment protection with generic valve

• In addition, tailor made valves

March 6, 2016
32
Higher Sample Throughput
Optimizing analysis times through automated
column regeneration can increase sample
throughput significantly – up to two-fold!
The determination of trace components is
always a challenge in the analysis of drug
metabolites, environmental samples, or foods
and beverages. Enrichment of the analyte prior
to analysis is often required to achieve highest
sensitivity.
Sample cleanup is essential for samples with
complex matrices, such as biological fluids, food
extracts or wastewater. Before injection into an
LC or LC/MS system, the analytes of interest
must be separated from the sample matrix.
March 6, 2016
33
Faster Method ScoutingTo develop an appropriate LC method and determine
the optimum separation conditions – for example, for
chiral screening – samples must be analyzed on
several stationary phases. This process can be
accelerated significantly.
The 12-position/13-port valve can be used as a
solvent selector for analytical flow rates. It provides
access to up to 12 different mobile phases. Combined
with a column selection valve, this solvent selection
valve offers utmost flexibility for developing new
methods.
The design of the 2-position/6-port valve allows you to
switch between two flow paths. Hence it can be used
to direct the column effluent to another detector –
simply select the detector that is best suited for your
application.

3 Crucial Points to achieve ultimate quaternary pump performance (low
pressure mixing!):
1. For best performance you must know your eluents
2. New InletWeaver using proven Jet Weaver technology
3. Pump intelligence - Active Damping - with high pump
resolution (~300 pL minimum step)
The 1290 Infinity Quaternary Pumpe offers the highest accuracy and
precision over the full application range!
More automation, less manual work

Manual mixing of different buffer
and/or modifier concentrations is
tedious and error-prone. BlendAssist
is doing that automatically and
reliably.

And gives the same result as for a manually mixed
solution!
Agilent innovative ISET technology allows you to use legacy
methods of virtually any LC and achieve the same results on
latest 1290 Infinity II LCs. You can retire your old systems
without retiring your precious methods.
All 1290 Infinity II pumps have ISET included.
Non-disruptive transition by ISET
ISET not only takes care for the various delay volumes in
different LC systems but also for different mixing behavior
– this is only available from Agilent and make instrument-
to-instrument method transfer easier than ever before.

With the Instrument Control Frame- work (ICF) and
RapidControl drivers you can operate the 1290 Infinity II LC
under any Agilent CDS and under most 3rd party CDS.

High capacity for different sample containers within small footprint
The 1290 Infinity II Multisampler takes a maximum load of
16 shallow well MTPs. Giving a maximum capacity of 6144
samples within the footprint of an Agilent LC stack.
Besides the maximum capacity also a high flexibility to
accept many different sample containers without re-
configuration of the system is possible.

Lowest carryover for highest data quality
Wash inner needle
Flow through principle washes inner needle
thoroughly and constant with eluent.
Wash outer needle
Choice of 3 external solvents to program
washing steps for the outer needle.
Needle-seat back flush
Choice of 3 external solvents to back
flush the seat.
Using the new Multiwash feature you can flush the inside
and outside surfaces of the injection needle with up to three
different solvents, as well as backflush the needle seat.
Lowest carryover for highest data quality
The 1290 Infinity II Multisampler with multiwash reduces
carryover to less than 9 ppm!
Flexibility for all applications
The dual-needle setup of the 1290 Infinity II Multisampler
enhances flexibility by providing two injectors in a single
instrument. You can optimize one path for large volume
injections and the other for low delay volumes.
20µl
500µl
Fast injection cycles with dual-needle injection
By fitting the 1290 Infinity II Multisampler with a second
injection needle, you can reduce cycle times to mere seconds
– virtually eliminating wait times for conventional injections and
even for large-volume loading or flushing procedures.

Unique detection capabilities reveal more
The 60 mm path length of the Agilent Max-Light flow cell
enables the 1290 Infinity II DAD to achieve typical noise
levels of less than ± 0.6 μAU/cm for highest detection
sensitivity and lowest detection limits.

Unique detection capabilities reveal more
For your samples with widely different concentration levels,
the 1290 Infinity II High Dynamic Range DAD solution
offers a 30x wider linear range and up to 30x higher sensitivity,
allowing you to detect and quantify all components within a
single run.
