he 3000A series has been engineered for maximum performance and reliability. It takes advantage of today’s latest technology to deliver even greater reliability, performance and flexibility.

KEY FEATURES

EASY TO OPERATE

Just load your samples and run the analysis with no extra down time. HTA offers GC autosampler with a large touch screen interface, providing easier system accessibility and usability. In fact, the touch screen eliminates drilldown and simplifies instrument control for novices and experienced users.

The self-aligning “plug and play” autosamplers of the 3000A series mount in seconds and without the need for tools. It can be easily moved between GCs when workloads change, due to its easy positioning, repositioning and easy removal. Easy to use: Just load the samples and run the analysis with no extra downtime. Run-all–samples mode makes the operations of sample processing simple and transparent; the sample rack can be removed for sample loading or preparation or stored elsewhere. The high-quality touch screen provides easier system accessibility and usability: it eliminates drill down, simplifying instrument control for both novices and experienced users. Besides the touch screen, the 3000A series can be also controlled by a PC using the HTA Autosampler Manager (please see the dedicated brochure), available in standard or CFR 21 Part 11 compliant version. Syringe illumination simplifies method validation by allowing to keep the sample under control while a quick-fix syringe bracket allows easy replacement of the syringe. Prevention of errors through vial detection: 3000A series autosamplers can detect the presence or absence of vials for sample, solvent and waste, to notify the analyst or skip to the next sample if programmed so.

A PERFECT FIT FOR YOUR LAB

With HTA, you have the flexibility to choose the automatic sampler that best suits the needs of your lab. The 3000A series is available in the standard version with 121 positions for 2ml vials. The top version 3200A has 209 positions, while the entrylevel version 3100A has a 15-position fixed rack. The HTA GC autosamplers are the fastest liquid autosamplers available on the market: injection is performed in less than 100ms. Fast-injection technology ensures the best possible peak shape, while maximising the accuracy of your results. The great solvent capacity means longer unattended operations: six solvent vials of 10ml each, giving a total capacity of 60ml.

The ability to customise cleaning solvent types and sequences includes the double wash step capability: as pre- and post-wash solvent in addition to A, B… F solvents you can also choose a combination of A+B, A+C…. F+E solvents for superior analytical performance (carry-over adverse!). The 3000A series autosamplers manage the most sophisticated sampling techniques: internal standard technique (also known as sandwich injection), multiphase, ambient headspace, priority injection, nanoliter and large volume injection. Parameters are easily programmable to optimise both the most convenient sampling methods for both extremely volatile or viscous samples and the best injection technique. Variable needle depths allow samples to be taken from anywhere within the vial, thus performing extractions directly from the vial.

EMPOWER YOUR MASS SPECTROMETER

Make the best choice to address evolving analytical needs: specific functionalities have been engineered to elevate MS potentialities and next-generation analysers. Mass detectors and next-gen analysers are more sensitive than a normal GC to some phenomena: that’s the reason the 3000A series exact and highly reproducible position of the syringe needle in the injector port makes the difference. Furthermore, sampling and injection methods reducing stress to septa have been implemented: this leads to minimising contamination of liner and analyser. Special functionalities to support prep-run have been implemented to reduce carrier gas consumption on the analyser resulting in lower operations cost, increased analyser parts lifetime and a more environmentally-conscious behaviour.

FAST INJECTION TECHNOLOGY

3000A Series can help you process samples more quickly and get better data too. It is the fastest liquid autosampler available in the market: injection is performed in less than 100ms. Fast-injection technology ensures the best possible peak shape, while maximizing the accuracy of your results.

EMPOWERED BY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)

AI brings intuitiveness and superior performances to laboratories. By AI functionalities within 3000A we offer: self-diagnostic tests that enable predictive maintenance strategies, continuous optimization of the workflow, extended flexible working style, automated consumables tracking, GC inlet septum test. Furthermore we dramatically simplify connection with service by usage of dynamic on-screen QR code.
