Automated Liquid Chromatography.
Now within your grasp. Thanks to the microprocessor, automation is everywhere and with good reason. Automation gets rid of tedium. It improves precision. It reduces the chance of human error. In chromatography, however, many people still tend to regard automation only in terms of large, expensive, research-oriented systems. Big mistake. Our smart instruments are competitively priced. And they're already making routine, day-to-day laboratory analysis a lot easier and more cost effective. We're going to tell you about one of these instruments—the SP8100 Liquid Chromatograph from Spectra-Physics.
All chromatographs will one day operate this way. The SP8100 offers remarkable on-board intelligence that facilitates and simplifies the analytical process.
Automated sampling with microinjection capability. Each vial or group of vials can be pre-programmed to use a different set of analysis parameters, up to 100 parameters in all. The system permits one microliter injection out of a five microliter sample.
Automated label reading.
Optim I adaptive optimization.
Because sample vials can be bar coded, you never have to worry about getting them scrambled. Put them into the analyzer in random order. Because each analysis is preprogrammed, you don't need a skilled technician.
An applications program on a plug-in chip which emulates the method development process of chromatography. It enables the SP8100 to come up with the best possible separation while operating completely unattended.
Automated self-checking.
Modular or total system— Spectra-Physics can handle all your chromatography needs.
You'll never ruin a batch of samples because the system wasn't running properly. If any step is not properly executed, the system will stop and tell you what's wrong. You must correct the problem before the system can continue on.
Automated single-vial calibration. You get even more sample space because you don't need multiple calibration vials. Whenever required, the system automatically tracks back to the same calibration vial.
Automated priority sampling. If you have a rush sample, the SP8100 can handle it without interrupting operation. Once the priority sample is completed, the analyzer automatically continues on with its original analyses... without missing a beat.
Most people know us for Labnet,'" our totally automated chromatography laboratory. But they sometimes forget that our product line is modular, too. All our components are designed to function as part of a fully integrated system. Including our modular Ternary Solvent Delivery system and Isocratic pump with automated flow control. Automation. It's more than a good idea. It's the only idea that makes sense in the 80's.
