Varian NMR system (VnmrS) 600MHz spectrometer with a cold probe

Features

  • 3 RF channels
  • Waveform generators
  • 1H {13C/15N} Pulsed field gradient Cold probe
  • Ultrashims
  • Variable temperature from 0 - 45°C

The 600MHz spectrometer equipped with a Varian Cold probe for high resolution NMR has 10 times the signal to noise that of the 500MHz. This system is suited to moderate sized molecules where sensitivity is an issue and makes this system the most cost efficient of the 4 NMR's where there is a problem with limited sample amounts.

Varian UNITY INOVA 500 MHz spectrometer with sample changer

Features

  • 3 RF channels
  • Varian 768 place Auto sampler
  • Waveform generators
  • 5mm Switchable pulse field gradient probe

The 500MHz spectrometer is equipped with a 768 place auto sampler that takes 5mm 4" normal walled (min 600µL solvent), medium walled (min 400µL solvent) and heavy walled tubes (min 250µL). This system is suited for small molecules where sensitivity is not an issue and user time is limited. Overnight batch runs using imported Excel files are also available for both 1 and 2D acquisitions. Experiment times are limited during the workday to 1hr/sample to increase throughput.

Varian UNITY INOVA 400 MHz spectrometer

Features

  • 3 RF channels
  • Pulsed-field gradient module
  • Waveform generators
  • CP-MAS solid state accessory
  • Variable temperature accessory
  • 5mm HCX triple resonance indirect detection pulse field gradient probe
  • 5mm PHX phosphorous optimised pulse field gradient probe (X coil is optimised for low frequency nuclei ranging from 109Ag - 15N studies)
  • 5mm HX "workhorse" pulse field gradient probe
  • 10mm traditional broadband probe, now mainly applied in surface studies
  • 20mm 31P/13C probe, for biological systems
  • 5mm HX, traditional indirect detection broad range VT capable probe
  • 7mm VT CPMAS probe

The 400MHz instrument is a solids/liquids capable instrument and is equipped with seven research grade probes, rendering it one of the most functional contemporary instruments in the country. The instruments routinely handles conventional contemporary 2D organic structural analysis, the NMR of more exotic nuclei, CPMAS solid state analysis and variable temperature liquids studies (-100°C - +100°C).

Varian NMR system (VnmrS) 300MHz spectrometer

Features

  • 2 RF channels
  • 5mm H, C, F, P indirect detection pulse field gradient probe
  • 7mm CPMAS probe

Our new, state of the art, 300MHz spectrometer is our workhorse instrument for routine organic liquids and solid state analysis and is utilised extensively in our teaching programs.
