AS40 Autosampler

The AS40 Autosampler is a low-cost, metal-free, rugged, automated, sample loading device designed especially for ion chromatography applications. Key features provide performance and versatility:

  • Simple front-panel layout makes the AS40 easy to learn and use.
  • Metal-free flow path eliminates corrosion and metal contamination problems.
  • Accommodates disposable PolyVial™ sample vials in both 5-mL and 0.5-mL sizes.
  • Filter caps automatically filter the samples during delivery.
  • Sample can be loaded to loops or concentrator columns.
  • Bypass valve displaces excess sample or trapped air before sampling.
  • Rinse vials can be placed anywhere in the sequence.
  • The output relay function indicates if and when an autosampler load was completed.
  • Automatic switching power supply for universal input voltage (90–265 V ac) simplifies instrument installation and setup.
