Jasco AS950 variable volume autosampler with chilling option

This unit has a very small footprint. It uses small vials, but will hold about 1ml of each sample. The loop size on these autosamplers is quite small, so only small volumes can be injected unless the loop size is increased

A tidy, reliable autosampler, and a matching pump and fluorescence detector are available.

Kontron 465 Autosampler

This is a flexible variable volume model, which does not have built in tray cooling. It takes standard 2ml vials, and has the tray, the syringe and the valve all easily accessible from the front without removing the cover. It even makes tuneful robot noises to let you know all is well.

It is easy to laod with samples and easy to programme, and we have a cable for the start signal out for connection to a data system.

Thermo AS3000

This model is variable volume, but does not have the column oven or cooling options. It works very well although its lid has been re-attached using a metal hinge, thanks to the plastic hinge breaking.

This is an industry standard workhorse autosampler, We have both the manual and the service manual for this instrument as pdf files.

Thermo AS3000 with sample preparation option

This unit is the same as above, except that the lid still has its hinges intact (quite a rarity on these units) and it has the sample preparation option built in. This is very useful for pre-column derivatisation. The unit can be programmed to take a volume of the sample and a volume of the derivatisation reagent and mix them in a third vial. After a preset time, the autosampler then takes a sample from this vial and injects into the HPLC system. This is especially useful when using OPA as a precolumn derivatisation reagent because the derivatives are not stable. Hence the reaction can be done immediately before injection automatically, ensuring optimum and reproducible sensitivity.
