The ESI SC-Series has been developed to solve the current limitations of autosamplers available to the analyst. Unsurpassed sample capacity ensures the longest unattended operation. Dual flowing rinse station allows for the use of two different rinse solutions ensuring fast wash-out of the previous sample and minimal blank contamination. The sample probe has no guide; therefore eliminating a major cause of cross contamination from sample to sample.
Rapid, Accurate & Clean
- The linear/polar motion of the sampling arm allows for simultaneous movement in the X-Y co-ordinates providing rapid sample access.
- Auto zero feature after each sample ensures no missed vials.
- Ultraclean dual flowing rinse station eliminates peristaltic pump contamination.
- Contamination from external sources is controlled with the optional SC Clean enclosure.
- Elimination of the probe guide solves a major cause or cross contamination.
Inert, Flexible & User Friendly
- All fluoropolymer sample flow path ensures both acid and solvent resistance.
- All electrical components are sealed to prevent attack from acid vapors and spills.
- No metal or mechanical parts move over the sample vials.
- Simple user set-up.
- Multiple rack sizes can be utilized, giving the flexibility to run with different sample volumes to maximize sample throughput.
Unique Features of the SC-Series Autosamplers
The SC-Series of autosamplers have many unique features.
Unsurpassed Capacity
- Maximum sample space utilized on the sample platform (up to 1260 samples @ 8mL).
- Smallest footprint / sample.
Dual Rinse Station
- Allows the use of 2 rinse solutions.
- Mimics the best manual procedure.
- Reduces contamination of blank solutions.
- Ultra clean option.
- Utilizes pressurized containers to supply rinse solutions.
- No Contamination from Peristaltic Pump tubing.
Rapid
- Simultaneous linear/polar motion ensures rapid movement between samples.
- Sample to rinse time ~3secs.
- X-Y-Z speed user controllable.
- Carriage is easily accessible for simple repair.
Low Cross Contamination
- Teflon encapsulated carbon fiber sample arm & probe.
- No probe guide eliminates a major cause of sample cross contamination.
- No metal or mechanical parts move over the sample platform.
The SC-14 provides unsurpassed sample capacity to ensure the longest unattended operation for overnight runs or even over-weekend runs. It can hold from up to 14 standard racks or 30 microtiter plates. The SC-14 autosampler is available either as a benchtop or as a mobile autosampler with integrated cart.
