Can I use the XBridge Peptide BEH C18 300Å, 5 µm, 1 mm X 50 mm column (186003615) or the XBridge Peptide BEH C18 130Å, 5 µm, 1 mm X 50 mm column (186003571) on an ACQUITY M-Class system that has ZenFit fittings?- WKB123439

ENVIRONMENT

• ACQUITY M-Class
• ZenFit
• nanoEase M/Z

ANSWER

No, this is not recommended.  

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The recommended replacement columns to use on an ACQUITY M-Class system that has ZenFit fittings are as follows:

186008881 - nanoEase M/Z BEH C18 130Å 5µm 1x50mm Col

186008882 - nanoEase M/Z BEH C18 300Å 5µm 1x50mm Col

Note:

The XBridge 1-mm ID columns have "Z-Detail" fittings, whereas the nanoEase M/Z 1-mm ID Columns have "V-Detail" fittings. ZenFit fittings are designed to properly fit into Waters V-Detail fittings, not Z-Detail fittings. Therefore the nanoEase versions of these columns are highly recommended for use with ZenFit fittings.
