Vanquish Horizon UHPLC Systems

Deliver results without compromise

Today’s scientists solve various challenges needed to produce life-saving medicines, improve the quality of our food and the environment, and discover the next breakthrough in science. Built from the ground up, the Thermo Scientific Vanquish Horizon UHPLC System is our premier UHPLC system to help solve these challenges. It delivers more and better results with superior separations and easier interaction with no trade-offs in performance, robustness, or ease-of-use. This fully integrated and biocompatible system features high sample capacity for high-throughput workflows, industry-leading pumping performance, amazingly high signal-to-noise (S/N) and linearity, two-mode thermostatting, and more.

Setting new standards in UHPLC

Continuous, worry-free operation

Continuous, worry-free operation

Reliable and continuous worry-free operation of HPLC instruments is critical for analytical laboratories to achieve the highest productivity and dependable results.

The Thermo Scientific Vanquish Solvent Monitor delivers productivity improvements through the avoidance of unintended dry solvent channels and supports your laboratory's compliance efforts by automatically logging eluent changes. Additionally, monitoring of your waste container levels can ensure your laboratory's smooth operation by preventing hazardous spills. 

Solvent and waste levels can be monitored directly on the instrument, through the Thermo Scientific Vanquish User Interface, or remotely with Thermo Scientific Chromeleon Chromatography Data System (CDS) software.
