Stirring up a storm

Automated sample preparation and delivery system for GPC/SEC characterisation of natural and synthetic polymers combines an autosampler and multistirrer

Integrating a high performance autosampler and multistirrer, the Vortex is designed to increase efficiency, enhance precision, and promote operator safety A new addition to Viscotek's comprehensive range of GPC/SEC solutions the product will allow chemists to concentrate on testing and data analysis, rather than time consuming and tedious sample preparation

Heatable to 150C, the temperature controlled Vortex multi-stirrer assembly features a stainless steel tray capable of handling both 20ml and 40ml sample vials.

Each vial position has its own magnetic stirring mechanism, delivering consistent and reproducible stirring action vial-to-vial and eliminating variability throughout the polymer dissolution process.

The autosampling device is used to dispense solvent and deliver sample.

Providing full software control of solvent and sample delivery, positioning arm, load / inject sequences and multi-stirrer operation the Vortex effectively removes the operator from the sample preparation process.

When coupled with the Viscotek Triple Detector Array (TDA) or Relative Viscometer, the Vortex provides a complete, automated system for the charcterisation of natural and synthetic polymers or proteins. Request a free brochure from Viscotek Europe ...
