PAL RTC xtended x-axis with Park Station, Tray Holder, Vortex Mixer, Standard Wash Module, Agitator and SPME Fiber Conditioning Module Park Station & Tools 6

PAL RTC standard x-axis with Park Station, Peltier Stack 6DW, Fast Wash Module and four Valve Modules. RTC Prep and Load Platform Fully Automated Prep and Load Systems The PAL RTC with Robotic Tool Change is the logical (r)evolution of the successful PAL product line. Sample prep prior to Chromatography is no longer the bottleneck – Automate your sample preparation and sample injection - all in the PAL RTC. The new PAL RTC is a robotic platform for efficient automated sample preparation steps. With the robotic tool change the PAL RTC increases productivity and widens the application range by...

• Unprecedented precision and repeatability • Analytical flexibility with one instrument • 24/7 fully unattended operation • Robotic change between Liquid, Headspace and SPME Methods • For sample preprarations with need for different syringe sizes during dilution, derivatisation and injection. • Use of multiple SPME fibers for method development • Highly variable volume range for injection by the use of different syringes Precise and repeatable sample prep steps provided by the robotic tool change are: • Sequential dilution • Calibration dilution • Standard addition Increased Vial Capacity The...

Robotic Tool Change ! Injector correct position Missing vial detected wrong position detected Position Detection Definable Z-tolerance for detection of correct injector position or missing vials Vortex Mixer For efficient mixing during liquid homogenization and extraction steps. Magnetic transportation Standard vial sizes: 2mL / 10mL / 20mL 1 additional slot for custom specific vials Provides efficient 2-phase mixing Cold Needle Injection Complete injection time 100ms Faster GC injection times down to 100ms for reduced discrimination in Split and Splitless injections modes.

Park Station & Tools Park Station The unique Park Station allows a robotic tool change (syringes with different volumes or different tool types) for advanced sample preparation, liquid handling (dilutions), derivatization steps or any other time consuming repetitive step. The additional versatility in combination with the increased volume range are significant benefits and allow the definition of flexible tailor-made automation processes. Park Station for up to three injection tools Installation of up to 2 Park Stations on one PAL RTC Process safety by tool recognition and position control Designed...
