Time Window – The fraction collector can collect fluids within
time windows. This collection mode allows the user to col-
lect or reject fluids based on time. For example, the time
window can start one minute into the run to divert initial
waste fluids, and then end ten minutes into the run to
reject any late eluting peaks that might occur during a five
minute column flush. In other words, fractions will only be
collected for the nine minutes of the run which deliver frac-
tions of interest.
Up to four time windows may be combined with a uniform col-
lection mode and with peak detection.
The fraction collector is designed to accept a variety of racks. The
racks align the collection tubes, minivials, and mini-well plates
under the drop former, and allow for quick removal and
replacement. The factory ships the Foxy R1 fraction collector
with one rack; the Foxy R2 fraction collector ships with two.
The following racks are available:
60-2137-150 One rack for 13 mm diameter tubes. Holds 144 tubes.
60-2137-151 One rack for 16 mm diameter tubes. Holds 100 tubes.
60-2137-152 One rack for 18 mm diameter tubes. Holds 72 tubes.
60-2137-153 One rack for 25 mm diameter tubes. Holds 36 tubes.
60-2137-156 One rack for 28 mm diameter scintillation vials. Holds 36
vials.
60-2137-154 One rack for 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tubes. Holds 60

Foxy R2 Only - Set of two racks for 480 mL glass
60-5247-004
bottles. Each rack holds nine bottles for a total of 18.
60-2137-062 Case of 40 glass 480 mL bottles for 60-5247-004 on the
Foxy R2. On the Foxy R1, nine of these bottles may be
placed directly on the drip tray—no rack is required.
These racks are chemically resistant, made from stainless steel
and polypropylene. The racks accept standard-sized, user-sup-
plied tubes, vials, and microplates of any material. When in
place, these racks are electrically grounded. This safety feature
dissipates electrostatic charges when collecting organic solvents
at high flow rates.
