DataApex: Nexera HPLC and Nexis GC systems Supported in Clarity

We are pleased to inform you about the enhanced control capabilities offered through the Clarity software family.

Clarity - Shimadzu Edition

Clarity - Shimadzu Edition expands instrument control options of Clarity Chromatography Software with Shimadzu Nexera HPLC and Nexis GC systems.

In addition to all supported instruments in Clarity, this edition brings exclusive control of Shimadzu Nexera HPLC and Nexis GC systems.

The control of Shimadzu Nexis GC-2030 GC and Shimadzu Nexera HPLC is available only through a special Clarity OEM version called Clarity - Shimadzu Edition (p/n C50-28) which is available only in Europe.

All Clarity features in the Shimadzu edition

You will get all the optional features available in Clarity with your Shimadzu edition, such as integrated control of selected instruments (GCs, LCs, pumps, detectors, autosamplers, etc.). Extensions provide functions for specific separation techniques or calculations such as PDA, GPC analysis, Mass spectrometry, or SST. User interface choice of languages includes English, French, German, Russian, Spanish, and Chinese. Our highly rated technicians and developers provide timely, extensive support.

Control module for Shimadzu Nexis GC-2030 system

The Shimadzu Nexis GC-2030 Control module allows direct control of this GC (Gas chromatograph) using Agilent ICF (Instrument Control Framework). Direct control means that the GC can be completely controlled from the Clarity - Shimadzu Edition Chromatography Station enabling integrated GC control thus ensuring complete automation for laboratories. The instrument method controlling the analysis conditions will be saved in measured chromatograms. Along with the above-mentioned CG, the control module also allows controlling autosamplers operated through the GC. The control is performed via LAN. The minimum required firmware of the GC is version 1.09.

Specification

Shimadzu Nexis GC-2030

  • Controlled instruments: Nexis GC-2030 gas chromatograph, AOC-20 family autosamplers
  • Supported detectors: FID, TCD, FTD, FPD, ECD, BID
  • Communication interface: LAN
  • Purchasing: GC Control - (p/n A23), GC Shimadzu Control (p/n A23-001) - needs to be purchased once for each connected system, AS Control - (p/n A26) - when autosampler is present
  • Related products: Clarity - Shimadzu Edition (p/n C50-28) Only available in Europe
  • Cable: Cross LAN (p/n SK08)

Control module for Shimadzu Nexera HPLC systems

Direct control of Shimadzu Nexera HPLC components using the Agilent ICF (Instrument Control Framework) tools developed by the Agilent company. The Clarity Chromatography Station - Shimadzu Edition allows for direct control of selected Shimadzu Nexera components (mostly from the Nexera LC-40 line), enabling Clarity to provide integrated instrument control and to ensure complete automation for laboratories. The control module includes parameters for the HPLC pumps, column ovens, detectors (including PDA), autosamplers, etc. A dedicated PDA Extension enables the evaluation of data from PDA systems.

The control module limits the usage of multiple Nexera HPLC systems in the same Clarity - only a single system is guaranteed to function reliably.
