Autosamplers

Since 1993, CETAC Technologies has provided autosamplers to meet the needs of its customers who were dissatisfied with the autosamplers on the market. CETAC offers a variety of models featuring low to high volume sample applications, and downloadable brochures for each product provide detailed information.

ASX-260

The compact and efficient design of the ASX-260 Two-Rack Autosampler preserves precious laboratory bench space.

Ideal for low to medium volume sample applications, these autosamplers provide all of the fully automated features of a CETAC Autosampler in compact, easy to use sample introduction systems.

ASX-520

The ASX-520 Random Access Intelligent Autosampler provides a fully automated sample introduction system with over 75 interfaces to host instruments from 35 manufacturers.

Ideal for medium to high volume sample applications, the ASX-520 features a metal-free liquid flow path, corrosion resistant coating on all metal parts and can withstand the harshest chemical environments while maintaining unsurpassed accuracy.

ASX-520HS

Building on Past Success: The ASX-520HS keeps all the same features that make CETAC Autosamplers an industry standard: metal-free liquid flow path, on board processor, flexible rack configuration, precision engineering, and unrivaled customer support. Accelerated movement dramatically increases efficiency in large volume sample processing. Automated sample handling time of 300 samples can be performed 2.5 times faster than with a standard autosampler. Increased speed allows for more sample analyses in a high throughput environment.

ASX-1400/1600

The CETAC ASX-1400/1600 Autosampler is designed for use in the oil industry, specifically the wear metals market. This market requested an autosampler that mixes the sample before analysis with minimal cross contamination. CETAC delivered the ASX-1400/1600 that has mixing capabilities and a unique drip cup to prevent cross contamination from messy drips.

CETAC plans to introduce the ASX-1400/1600 Autosampler to new markets that have the need for a robust and flexible autosampler. This instrument’s design will enable it to accommodate many different applications.

APS-1650

The APS-1650 Automated Preparation Station prepares off-line sample dilutions with specific intentions for use in the oil analysis industry. A maximum of 90 samples are collected from a sample rack and deposited in a collection rack along with a dilutant in a specified ratio (1:1 to 1:10). The diluted samples are stirred to ensure proper mixing and accurate results.

A unique CETAC designed software program provides customizable control options for the APS-1650 and runs concurrently with the ICP software on a host computer, minimizing the need for additional computer hardware. The customized control allows the user to set parameters to optimize performance based on requirements for carry over, time and rinse volume.

XLR 8

- Double Your Sample Capacity

A complete 8 rack autosampler that holds up to 720 samples and 10 standards, freeing valuable personnel from the task of manual sample manipulation.

- Designed for the Harshest Environments

Building on the ruggedness of the ASX 520, the XLR 8 features sealed and conformal coated electronics and robust mechanics using polymer sealed rollers and polymer rails that are naturally self-cleaning for even the most challenging labs. 

- Simple Setup

A full system arrives aligned out of the box, meaning setup takes only minutes.

- Cost Effective

Create an 8 rack autosampler at a lower cost than purchasing two ASX 520 autosamplers. Upgrade kits are also available to upgrade your current ASX 520, 510 or 500 to 8 racks as well.
