LC-20AD/AT/AB Pumps
Providing the Worlds Best Solvent Delivery Performance

The Shimadzu family of pumps continues to set
the standard by which others are judged. From the
LC-20AD with its Mass Spec friendly, pulse-free
delivery to the LC-20AT designed for traditional
analytical ow rates to the new space-saving LC20AB, the entire line has been enhanced.

pumps. First, a new spring-loaded check valve
design has been incorporated. The spring assists in
closing the check valve to prevent leak-back, resultBinary Solvent Delivery Unit

will also increase the dependability and stability
of the pump with non-polar mobile phases like

problems. Second, the rmware has been modied

Of course, these improvements will enhance the
performance of other detectors as well.

Improved Durability
The durability of all of the pumps has been improved in several ways. All of the plungers used in the
Prominence series pumps are specially machined to exploit the sapphires crystal structure properties. The plungers obtained from this process have the best hardness and highest chemical resistivity
possible. This means that the highly polished surface of the piston will retain its surface longer and
result in longer seal life. Another important factor in seal life is proper plunger and seal alignment.
The plungers are mounted in a free-oating mechanism designed to ensure precise alignment of the
plunger in the seal and pump head, again resulting in an increase in the service life of the highpressure pump seals.

Standalone or Part of a System

The Prominence Series Pumps are fully capable of
being run from the front panel keypad. Or, for the
most convenience, connect it to Shimadzus innovative CBM-20 controller and take advantage of its
industry exclusive web-based control. This means
you can monitor and control the pumps and any
other components connected to the CBM from anywhere in the world through your web browser. The
CBM also acts as the conduit between the HPLC and
the controlling software, whether it is a Shimadzu
CDS package, MS control package, or any other
software package that contains Shimadzu control.
