EPOND presents the autosamplers from ESI : the SC-Series Clean Intelligent Autosamplers

The ESI SC-DX autosamplers were developed to solve the limitations of autosamplers available to the analyst. Dual flowing rinse station allows for the use of two different rinse solutions ensuring fast wash-out of sample and minimal blank contamination. The sample probe has no guide, thus eliminating a major cause of cross contamination between samples.

Rapid, Accurate, Clean and Cost-Effective

  • The Linear/Polar motion - gives rapid sample changeover.
  • Auto zero feature after each sample ensures no missed vials.
  • Ultraclean dual-flowing rinse station does not use a peristaltic pump, ensuring no contamination from tubing.
  • Contamination from external sources eliminated with the optional HEPA filter cabinet.
  • No probe guide - eliminates a major cause of cross contamination.
  • Prices range from CHF 8500,- to CHF 15000,-.
  • Inert, Flexible and User Friendly

  • All fluoropolymer sample flow path construction - corrosion resistance.
  • All electrical components are encapsulation-sealed.
  • No metal or mechanical parts move over the samples vials.
  • Simple user set-up.
  • Multiple rack sizes can be utilized, for maximum flexibility.
  • Unique Features of the SC-Series Autosamplers

    Unsurpassed Capacity

  • Maximum sample space made available on the sample platform
      -  up to 1260 samples in the case of the SC-14 ...
  • Smallest footprint / sample.
  • Dual Rinse Station

  • Allows the use of 2 rinse solutions.
  • Mimics best manual procedure.
  • Reduces contamination of blank solutions.
  • Ultra clean option.
    - Uses pressurized containers to supply rinse solutions.
    - No Contamination from Peristaltic Pump tubing.
  • Rapid

  • Simultaneous Linear / Polar motion ensures rapid movement between samples.
  • Sample to Rinse time ~3secs.
  • X-Y-Z speed user controllable.
  • Carriage is easily accessible for simple repair.
  • No Cross Contamination

  • Teflon-encapsulated carbon fibre sample arm & probe.
  • No probe guide, eliminates a major cause of sample cross contamination.
  • No metal or mechanical parts move over the sample platform.
  • SC-14 / SC-14T High Capacity Autosampler

    The SC-14 provides unsurpassed sample capacity to ensure the longest unattended operation for overnight runs. It can hold up to 14 racks of Rack Type A or 24 racks of Rack Type B. The SC-14 autosampler is available either as a bench-top unit or as a mobile autosampler with integrated cart.

    Feature Benefit

    The SC-2DX provides a full-featured autosampler with a small footprint, making it ideal for labs with minimal bench space. It can hold up to 2 Rack Type A or 4 Rack Type B.

    Feature Benefit
    Large / Small Vials accommodated All samples analyzed in a single run
    Mechanism below sample tray Low contamination
    No Probe Guide Low Contamination
    Dual rinse station Mimics best manual procedure

    SC-E2DX and SC-E4DX Integrated Autosamplers

    The first products to combine an autosampler with a sample tray mounted to the Element 2 ICP-MS, making a convenient interface ideal for either self-aspirating or pumping liquid samples.

    Feature Benefit
    Large / Small Vials accommodated All samples analyzed in a single run
    Mechanism below sample tray Low contamination
    No Probe Guide Low Contamination
    Dual rinse station Mimics best manual procedure
    Fully Integrated with Element2 Easy maintenance &
    fast rinse-out
