Getting to know Clarity

Clarity Chromatography Station is an effective tool for the acquisition, processing, and evaluation of data from a wide range of directly controlled chromatographs, and from any gas or liquid chromatograph with an analog output.

Clarity provides tools to comply with the FDA’s directive 21 CFR Part 11.

Key features

  • Measurement - Simultaneous data acquisition from up to four 32-signals systems (4×32 signal configuration).
  • Integration - Clarity includes two advanced integration algorithms, offering extensive customization options for peak detection and quantification. Fine-tuned integration parameters can be easily applied to other chromatograms, ensuring consistent and efficient data processing.
  • Calibration - Internal and external standard calculation methods, calibration of groups of peaks and reference peaks for better identification.
  • Automated measuring support - Sequence tables for any set of samples with or without an autosampler.
  • Audit Trail and GLP Compliance - Built-in audit trails and GLP Options settings ensure compliance with GLP and other regulatory standards.
  • User Account Management - Includes password policy enforcement, access restrictions, and user-level audit logs for secure and compliant operation.
  • Post-run Options - Automatically displays, prints, exports and starts other programs after completion of measurement.
  • Summary result tables - Displays and prints selected results from all simultaneously displayed chromatograms.
  • Customizable Reporting - Customizable templates and styles for generating detailed, professional reports.
  • Column performance - Calculations of peaks in terms of symmetry, efficiency, resolution, etc.
  • Batch - Automatically batch processes, displays, exports or prints any number of chromatograms.
  • User calculations - User- defined columns in the Result and Summary tables.

Extensions

Extensions provide features within Clarity that are specific to a given type of analysis or for a specific task.

Each extension comes with a specific Demo project, allowing you to explore its features using test data. This can be done in the Demo version of Clarity, which simulates acquisition without requiring a hardware key, letting you evaluate the extension before making a purchase.

Currently available extensions are:

  • SST (System Suitability Test): Tracks and evaluates measurement quality.
  • GPC (Gel Permeating Chromatography): Tailored for performing and analyzing GPC/SEC data.
  • PDA (Photo-Diode Array): Designed for evaluating data from PDA/DAD detectors.
  • MS (Mass Spectrometry): Tailored for data evaluation from MS detectors.
  • CE (Capillary Electrophoresis): Adds CE-specific tools and terminology.
  • NGA (Natural Gas Analysis): Performs calculations for gas analyses based on selected norms.
  • EA (Elemental Analysis): Provides tools for performing and analyzing elemental analyses.
  • DHA (Detailed Hydrocarbon Analysis): Specializes in determining components in fuels like PIONA.

Control Modules

Software modules that provide an interface for chromatography devices such as GC and HPLC systems, Autosamplers, Fraction Collectors and Valves. Direct control allows the device(s) to be controlled and monitored from the Clarity. The instrument method that controls the device is saved in the measured chromatograms.
