Can I determine the part number for a Waters guard column or guard cartridge based only on the lot number or serial number on the item? - WKB53513

Article number: 53513

ENVIRONMENT

  • Column protection
  • Guard cartridges

ANSWER

No

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

You cannot verify a guard cartridge's part number or guard column part number based only on a lot number or serial number. Because it is possible to have more than one part number packed from the same lot number, you cannot determine the part number of a guard based on a lot number or part number. If you have a list of guard part numbers that your lab has ordered, Waters Technical Service might be able to tell you if any of the guard column part numbers provided ever shipped in the lot number provided and may even be able to identify an order, if a lot shipped in a specific part number.
