TUBE-IN-TUBE THERMAL EXCHANGER FOR LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY SYSTEMS

摘要

A thermal exchanger for a liquid chromatography system. The thermal exchanger comprising a first and second of tubing, a first connector, and a second connector. The first section of tubing carries sample solution from the packed chromatography column. The second section of tubing carries the sample solution from the detector out of the system. Both the first section of tubing and the second section of tubing connect to the first connector. The combination of the two sections of tubing form a thermal exchange tubing. The thermal exchange tubing is configured into a plurality of coils. The number of coils in the thermal exchange tubing is specific to the chromatography application. The thermal exchanger provides a stabilized temperature fluid to a detector with minimal volume into the flow path between the chromatography column and the detector.
