Vici AG International

About us

“For more than 50 years, the VICI companies have been a leading designer and manufacturer of components for precision analytical, biomedical, and biocompatible instrumentation. Companies under the VICI umbrella serve five continents with a diverse product line that includes liquid and gas valves, sample injectors and selectors, pneumatic and electric actuators, tubing, syringes, temperature controllers, gas generators, gas purifiers, and GC detectors. With over 150 state-of-the-art CNC machines, our instruments and components are manufactured to exacting standards.

VICI produces a complete line of valves for analytical chemistry. We specialize in zero dead volume fittings and filters for the separation sciences. Our newest products include the C82 line of UHPLC valves, fittings that permit direct connection of 360 um tubing, the Universal valve actuator, and the C52 platform integrated HPLC injectors and selectors. Cheminert®️ UHPLC injectors, switching valves, and selectors are ideal for high speed, high throughput techniques which demand a valve and fitting system that minimize internal volume and eliminate dead volume. VICI offers UHPLC versions for nanobore and microbore applications.

Also suitable for UHPLC is our The M Series pump, which is recommended for any liquid handling applications requiring accuracy and precision. It is particularly suited for applications with a wide range of volumes (which entail laborious syringe changes with other pumps) and for applications that benefit from the versatility provided when the pump is coupled with the available multi-position reagent selection valve”

Hydrogen generators

The VICI DBS ® NM Plus hydrogen generator offers the optimum combination of safe operation, reliability and performance. Designed as a hazard free alternative to high-pressure cylinders, all that is required is deionized water and a standard electrical supply for weeks of continuous operation. Utilizing our proprietary Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) inside a 100% titanium cell provides superior generator performance and cell longevity. The permeation membrane drying system eliminates the requirement for desiccant cartridges along with the associated downtime and cost. The final purification stage uses a no maintenance cold dual dynamic regeneration system which increases the purity to +99.99996%. Innovative software control allows unrivaled operational performance and safety as well as the additional options of auto water feed, remote networking and cascading for built in redundancy. With a maximum output capacity of 1350 mL/min, one generator can supply up to 33 GCs. The compact design allows the generator to be installed directly in the laboratory eliminating the requirement for long gas lines and guaranteeing the delivery of high purity gas to your instruments. A sophisticated control system connected to an easy to use touch screen control continuously monitors vital operating parameters to ensure a safe and consistent performance. Built in sensors will shut the generator down if internal/external leaks are present, contaminated water, low water or over pressure. This is why VICI DBS generators meet the strict safety guidelines to be certified for CE, FCC and MET (CSA and UL compliant).

Nitrogen Generator

The HP Zero N2 Tower Nitrogen Generator produces nitrogen by utilizing a combination of filtration and pressure swing adsorption (PSA) technology. Standard compressed air is filtered by high-efficiency coalescing filters to remove all contaminants down to 5 µm. For ultra-sensitive applications such as GC carrier and make-up gas, units also include the additional heated catalyst module to ensure hydrocarbons are removed to <0.1 ppm. The air then passes through two columns filled with a proprietary blended carbon molecular sieve (CMS) which adsorbs O2, CO2, and moisture. These are desorbed to the atmosphere during the pressure swing cycle leaving a supply of ultra-pure nitrogen.
