The autosampler has what Thermo Fisher Scientific calls automatic tool change (ATC) capability which automates the exchange of syringes for different tasks in a single, unattended sequence prior to sample injection. This diminishes the need for extensive manual labour and downtime in tasks such as standard or stock sample dilutions, internal standard addition and derivatisation.
The system can also expand unattended operations and productivity because it has one of the largest sample capacities available for an autosampler – a sample vial capacity of 648 2-mL vials, combined with multiple 100-mL wash/waste bottles. This allows the TriPlus RSH to achieve weekend-long unattended operations.
The sample also features Vial Bottom Sensing which can detect the vial bottom and accurately withdraw microlitres or fractions of microlitres from a sample as low as five microlitres in a vial. This makes it suitable for trace analysis, radioactive samples or samples requiring expensive internal standards.
