The VERITY 3240 HPLC Pump: High-Performance Separations Power in a Compact and Efficient Design

Advanced features and capabilities make the 3240 a welcome addition to the line of high-throughput VERITY purification systems

HPLC pumps can excel in certain aspects, for instance, in the ability to achieve high-flow rates, form gradients, or accommodate multiple solvents and columns. With most systems, however, there is typically a trade-off between performance and user-friendly capabilities.

The VERITY 3240 is a high-pressure binary gradient pump designed for straightforward integration with Gilson’s VERITY purification platforms. The advanced features make the pump extremely capable of user-friendly, automated, high-throughput workflows.

A Preparative Pump with a Large, Dynamic Flow Range

At its core, the VERITY 3240 is a high-pressure binary gradient pump built for semi-preparative and preparative purifications. This pump is intended to provide researchers with improved specifications for a broader range of applications. Key performance features include:

• The ability to perform binary gradients with pulse-free, stable solvent flow for a wide variety of liquids, including high-viscosity solvents.
• High-pressure pumping at flow rates up to 150 mL/min and pressures up to 420 bar (6090 psi).
• Compatibility with mobile phase buffers and ion pairing reagents, with washable pump heads to ensure long-lasting usage.

Reproducible and Flexible Purification

• The VERITY 3240 Pump delivers reproducible and precise elution gradients to achieve repetitive isolations of targeted compounds.
• The unit can effectively work with preparative HPLC columns from 10 mm to 50 mm ID, allowing for scaling up purification from milligrams up to tens of grams on the same Gilson automated purification platforms.

Efficient Solvent Selection

• The VERITY 3240 Pump can be equipped with two to four inlet solvent selectors, allowing solvent switching (up to 4) without user intervention.
• The system supports high throughput purification using different column types, allowing for quick column cleaning and regeneration.

Innovative Design

The 3240 pump is enhanced with multiple features intended to maximize efficiency.

• The compact design allows for placement of additional HPLC system modules on top of the pump, saving valuable bench space.
• Purification automation is made more convenient by allowing users to access multiple solvents without changing bottles.
• Routine maintenance is simplified by providing quick access to pump components that may wear, such as seals and check valves.

On top of these features, the VERITY 3240 is fully and exclusively controlled by powerful Trilution® Software, which is integrated into the portfolio of VERITY purification systems.

Additional Specifications

• Dual reciprocating pistons ensure high-quality binary gradients.
• High flow rates allow the use of the latest polymeric columns at high pressure.
• An exclusive integrated pressure, purge, and mixing module (PPMM) supports precision gradient composition across the complete flow range.
• Purification can be run overnight using a leak tray with optional leak sensor. An alarm in the software will be triggered if unintended liquid is detected.
• A glass door protects hydraulic components, and front panel indicator lights inform users of the pump status: running, idle, or if an error has occurred.
• Accessible standard spare parts are included to support easy maintenance.
• Designed to be part of a modular preparative HPLC system.

Summary

The VERITY 3240 pump is an economical and compact pumping solution that is a welcome addition to the line of high-throughput VERITY purification systems. The state-of-the-art features of the 3240 enable high-performance separation power without compromising user accessibility.
