Fast-01

Aqualog A-TEEM Autosampler Accessory

Introducing the NEW Fast-01 Autosampler accessory for batch measurements in many A-TEEM applications and for batch measurements in industrial QA/QC settings.

Segment: Scientific
Manufacturing Company: HORIBA Scientific
  • Speed, accuracy and precision
  • Sample vial temperature control
  • Plug and play temperature-controlled flow-cell sample compartment
  • Excellent repeatability and negligible carryover between samples
  • Fully integrated into Aqualog v4.2+ software

 

A-TEEM Molecular Fingerprinting is a new optical technique that is ideal for comprehensive component analysis in a variety of QC/QA applications, from water to wine to pharmaceuticals and beyond. It is a simple, fast, “column free” spectroscopic technique that simultaneously measures the absorbance, transmission and fluorescence of samples in solution and offers some unique benefits over traditional analytical techniques such as chromatography, mass spec IR and more.

By connecting the new Fast-01 autosampler accessory to the HORIBA Aqualog® A-TEEM spectrometer it can greatly facilitate your routine batch liquid analysis.

The Fast-01 can be configured with either 10 ml vials (up to 24 of them) or 2 ml vials (up to 96 of them) to meet your application needs and features complete temperature control. Fluorescence is highly sensitive to temperature fluctuations, so clamping the temperature is critical for precise A-TEEM molecular fingerprinting.

Sample vial repeats and injection volumes are easily facilitated with the Aqualog 4.2+ software, which also offers preconfigured blank files.

All data files can be exported with ISO-formatted time-date stamping and user-configurable Sample ID and repeat codes.

All aspects of the Fast-01 hardware control are at your fingertips, within the Aqualog software, with key real-time access features to facilitate the configuration and execution of your batch experiments, as well as priming, cleaning and maintenance.

  

Vial/Well Selection

The Method Setup section of the Aqualog Sample Q software allows the user to establish which vials are Sample, Blank or unused. This configuration shows the display
for the two available trays of 12 each, of the 10 ml vials.
 

Experimental Method

The Method Setup section of the Aqualog Sample Q software allows the user to enable temperature control, temperature equilibration, wash counts and flushing parameters.
