Clarity, Chromatography Software

Clarity is advanced Chromatography Data Station (CDS) with optional software modules for data acquisition, data processing, and instrument control. Its wide range of data acquisition interfaces (A/D converters, LAN, USB, RS232) allows connection to virtually any chromatograph.

Up to four independent chromatography systems, each of which can be equipped with up to 12 detectors (signals), can be simultaneously connected.

Clarity can be used with any GC or HPLC. Together with optional Control modules and Extensions it provides the laboratories with complete chromatography data handling system. The Control modules provide integrated control of selected instruments, Extensions provide functions for specific separation techniques such as PDA or GPC analysis.

Clarity comes with extensive free support from DataApex as well as from the growing community of users in the Clarity Conference. Unlike many large corporations, the DataApex Company is in close contact with its users.

The following figures display typical configurations of Clarity chromatography station. Each configuration is described in detail including the ordering numbers of utilized parts for easier reference.

 

The LC measures on two detectors. Clarity will acquire two separate signals sharing common timebase (synchronized START/STOP). Resulting chromatogram will contain two signals. Part numbers: C50 (Clarity) + I72 (INT2 dual channel A/D converter card)

Clarity is used to acquire data from two chromatograps. Each chromatograph uses single detector, so it is enough to use dual channel card. However it is necessary to purchase Clarity Ad-on instrument to be able to acquire data from two separate systems simultaneously. In this case the signals are completeley independent. Part numbers: C50 (Clarity) + C55 (Clarity Add-on Instrument) + I72 (INT7 dual channel A/D converter card
