Features
Wide Scope of Applications: The AIM3000 Autosampler Family is designed to function with a wide variety of vials and sample types commonly used in analytical laboratories across industries.
Maximized Efficiency: The AIM3000 boasts a compact footprint, maximizing available area for samples and standards. Its proven mechanical design ensures exceptional reliability.
Precision and Purity: Ideal for small-scale applications, the AIM3000's moving probe arm minimizes wear particles, preventing sample contamination. Probe travel is confined within the autosampler's boundaries, leading to faster washout and sampling.
Outstanding Customization: With highly flexible programming capabilities, you control probe speed, depth, travel limits, wash pump speed, and specialized probe moves. The solid, robust design ensures seamless operation, and it is easy to interface with your host analyzer.
Maintenance Made Simple: The AIM3000 is hassle-free and customizable for various application and branding requirements, including:
- A range of sample probes, wash reservoirs, sample and standards racks
- Custom labeling/badging
- Custom packaging of the autosampler
- Custom accessories and modifications
Seamless integration with ThalesNano instruments: The AIM3000 Family opens new ways to automate and improve your hydrogenation reactions by working easily with the Instrument Fleets and the H-Cube® Advance.
Optional Accessories: The AIM3000 features an optional protective sampler cover that is both easy to fit and cost-effective. Additionally, an optional two- or three-channel wash pump is available to supply clean wash solution to either a single- or dual-port wash station.
