What you are buying
An Agilent 1200 Series G1316B TCC SL column thermostat. It holds the column at a set temperature up to 100°C, twenty degrees higher than the base G1316A, with hardware tuned to reduce dispersion at low flow rates.
Every unit moves through the GenTech Certified process. Solution Scientists disassemble and inspect each module, replace all consumables and degraded wear components, then tune and calibrate the instrument and verify performance against OEM and published benchmarks using known reference chemicals. The instrument ships with its verification report. A certified-refurbished system gives you that performance without the capital cost or the lead time of a new purchase.
What Agilent says about this platform
Agilent engineered the 1200 Series Thermostatted Column Compartment SL (TCC SL) to meet the strict demands of high-performance and ultra-fast liquid chromatography (UHPLC). Agilent highlights this “Super Speed” (SL) edition for its expanded temperature ceiling—reaching up to 100 °C—and upgraded capillary fluidics rated for 600-bar operations. By allowing columns to run at significantly higher temperatures, the G1316B drastically reduces mobile phase viscosity, lowering system backpressure and enabling ultra-fast separations without sacrificing column lifetime. It stands as a premium, compliance-ready module featuring advanced low-volume solvent pre-heating and post-column cooling to protect down-stream detectors from thermal noise during rapid gradient methods.
What this module does
High-temperature column thermostat
Holds the column at a set temperature up to 100°C, with low-dispersion hardware for low-flow methods that the base G1316A does not include.
As an advanced SL-class column oven, the Agilent G1316B provides high-temperature and high-pressure fluidic optimization, executing several vital tasks:
Extended Thermal Operation: It utilizes high-output Peltier elements to drive internal oven temperatures up to 100 °C, enabling specialized high-temperature separations that are impossible in standard 80 °C ovens.
600-Bar Pressure Capability: It features heavy-duty internal plumbing and low-dispersion heat exchangers engineered to withstand the rigorous backpressures of modern sub-2-micron particle columns.
Post-Column Sample Cooling: It cools the mobile phase effluent immediately after it exits the column, preventing hot solvent from entering optical or mass spec detectors to eliminate thermal baseline noise.
Multi-Column Valve Integration: It accommodates internal, automated high-pressure column switching valves (such as 2-position/6-port or 6-position/7-port options) to allow hands-free method development across multiple columns.

What “GenTech Certified” means
Refurbishment at GenTech is a defined process, not a wipe-down. Every system moves through the same specific stages.
1. Disassembly and rebuild. Solution Scientists strip the instrument down, clean each module inside and out, and rebuild it from the frame up. They replace pump seals, pistons, and check valves to specification.
2. Configuration and new parts. Solution Scientists install the options and modules you selected and fit new wear parts throughout. They replace the detector lamp with a new one and reset the lamp hours.
3. Diagnostic and performance testing. Solution Scientists tune and calibrate the instrument, run system diagnostics, and confirm detector wavelength accuracy. They test full-system pressure and gradient performance against OEM and published benchmarks using known reference chemicals.
4. Delivery and installation. The instrument ships in protective packing with a one-year warranty option and professional installation available from a GenTech Solution Scientist.
Labs that run this system
The 1200 HPLC is method-compatible across the techniques most regulated and research labs run every day. These are the application areas buyers ask about most.
High-Temperature, Fast Impurity Profiling
Pharma R&D laboratories utilize the G1316B to run high-temperature UHPLC methods up to 100 °C. The elevated thermal limit drops backpressure, enabling rapid, high-resolution profiling of complex drug degradation pathways in minutes.
High-Throughput Micro-Pollutant Gradient Runs
Environmental labs use the TCC SL to maintain sharp peak shapes during fast-gradient micro-pollutant screenings. The 1.6 µL low-dispersion heat exchangers prevent sample peaks from broadening, ensuring excellent sensitivity for trace contaminants.
Rapid Carbohydrate and Bio-Polymer Resolution
Food safety testing facilities deploy the TCC SL to accelerate tricky disaccharide and complex sugar assays. Pushing temperatures toward 90 °C provides the superior separation power needed to resolve structurally identical ingredients rapidly.
Ultra-Fast, High-Pressure Potency Screening
High-capacity cannabis labs pair the 600-bar G1316B with sub-2-micron columns for rapid cannabinoid screening. The integrated post-column cooling protects detector baselines, ensuring stable, reproducible quantifications during consecutive high-throughput runs.
High-Speed Designer Drug and Narcotic Confirmation
Forensic crime labs utilize the high-pressure capabilities of the G1316B to run ultra-fast multi-drug screening panels. The resulting retention time precision delivers highly defensible data required to satisfy strict legal chain-of-custody tracking.
