Pack-n-Sep™ Principle


Pack-n-Sep™ combines the advantages of both Prochrom® columns and an ultra fast packer.

You only need one packer for several columns, of 50 or 80 mm i.d.

Columns can be used on the packer in DAC mode or detached, a unique patented compression device maintaining bed compression.

This packer enables packing or unpacking in less than 5 minutes.
