Unlike “one size fits all” guard systems, the Trident Direct system gives you the power to select the right level of protection for your analysis. The system offers three levels of protection and guard cartridges in four dimensions, with a variety of bonded phases to match your analytical column. The economical, leak-free cartridge design provides an unprecedented combination of convenience, economy, and reliability. The foundation of the Trident Direct system is a reusable direct connect holder that easily attaches to any HPLC column using CPI- or Waters-style end fittings.* The system is available in configurations to match different protection level needs: in-line filter, in-line filter with holder for 10mm guard cartridge, and in-line filter with holder for 20mm guard cartridge. The guard cartridges are available in 2.1 and 4.0mm ID and are interchangeable within the appropriate length holder.

*The standard PEEK tip in Trident Direct systems is compatible with Parker, Upchurch Scientific, Valco, and other CPI-style fittings. To use Trident Direct systems with Waters-style end fittings, replace the tip with cat.# 25088.
