Solvent Filters and Reservoirs

Chrom Tech supplies genuine Agilent InfinityLab solvent filters and glass reservoirs engineered for clean, reliable mobile-phase delivery in LC workflows. As an authorized Agilent distributor, we provide only authentic components designed to maintain instrument precision, protect pump performance, and ensure safer solvent handling in the laboratory.

Agilent’s redesigned 1 L and 2 L reservoirs are available in both amber and clear glass—ideal for preventing algae growth or supporting full solvent visibility depending on your application. All InfinityLab reservoirs integrate seamlessly with InfinityLab Stay Safe caps and are fully compatible with 1220, 1260, and 1290 InfinityLab LC Series instruments. These updated solvent bottles improve ergonomics, reduce handling risks, and streamline day-to-day operation in modern LC environments.

Key Definitions â–¶
Solvent Reservoir
A glass bottle used to hold mobile phase for LC systems. Agilent InfinityLab reservoirs are available in amber (to limit light exposure) or clear (for visibility), and are optimized for safe handling and stable solvent delivery.
Solvent Filter
A submersible frit attached to the solvent inlet tubing that removes particulates before they enter the pump. Genuine Agilent filters help protect pistons, seals, and valves from abrasion and clogging.
Stay Safe Cap
A sealed solvent-management cap system designed to reduce vapor exposure, maintain mobile-phase purity, and standardize tubing connections across InfinityLab LC instruments.
Mobile Phase
The solvent or solvent mixture used to transport analytes through the LC system. High-purity mobile phases and properly filtered reservoirs are essential for stable baselines and reproducible chromatography.
Amber Glass
Solvent reservoir material that blocks UV and visible light, helping prevent photodegradation and algae growth—ideal for light-sensitive mobile phases.
Clear Glass
A transparent reservoir material that improves visibility of solvent levels and clarity—ideal for method development or monitoring solvent consumption.
Inlet Tubing
Tubing that transfers solvent from the reservoir to the pump. Proper length, chemical compatibility, and filtration help maintain pump efficiency and reduce pulsation.
Frequently Asked Questions â–¶
Which solvent reservoir should I choose—amber or clear?
Amber reservoirs are recommended for light-sensitive mobile phases or to help prevent algae growth. Clear reservoirs are preferred when full visibility of solvent levels is needed during operation or method development.
How often should solvent inlet filters be replaced?
Most labs replace solvent filters every 3–6 months, depending on solvent purity and system usage. Genuine Agilent filters help protect pumps, pistons, and seals from particulate-related wear.
Are Agilent Stay Safe caps required for InfinityLab reservoirs?
They are not required, but Stay Safe caps provide a closed solvent-management system that reduces vapor exposure, improves mobile-phase stability, and ensures clean, secure connections to InfinityLab LC instruments.
Are Chrom Tech solvent filters and reservoirs genuine Agilent parts?
Yes. Chrom Tech is an authorized Agilent distributor and supplies only genuine, manufacturer-verified components—ensuring compatibility, safety, and validated LC performance.
How do I know which solvent reservoir size to use?
Most InfinityLab LC workflows use 1 L or 2 L reservoirs. Select based on run time, solvent consumption, and method requirements—larger reservoirs help reduce mobile-phase changes during long batch sequences.
