SPE-03 Automated SPE System – 8-Channel Solid Phase Extraction for PFAS

Meta Title: SPE-03 Automated SPE System – 8-Channel Solid Phase Extraction for PFAS

Meta Description: The SPE-03 Automated SPE System processes 8 samples in parallel for solid phase extraction. It complies with EPA methods for PFAS, pesticides, and other environmental compounds.

Introduction

The SPE-03 Automated SPE System provides a fully automated and standardized solution for the solid phase extraction (SPE) process. This compact, 8-channel system is designed to handle a wide range of liquid samples. It utilizes positive pressure to ensure consistent flow rates, making it ideal for environmental and food safety laboratories.

Product Overview

This instrument is designed to support diverse analytical applications, offering flexibility and reliability. The SPE-03 Automated SPE System is particularly effective for PFAS analysis, supporting methods like EPA 533 and 1633. Its small footprint allows it to fit easily into any standard fume hood. The instrument processes all 8 samples in parallel, ensuring all samples start and finish simultaneously for improved workflow and sample consistency.

FAQ

1. What is the SPE-03 Automated SPE System used for?

The system is used to automate the process of Solid Phase Extraction (SPE), which is a technique for sample cleanup and concentration before analysis by methods like LC/MS or GC/MS.

2. How many samples can the system process at once?

The SPE-03 can process 8 samples simultaneously, which significantly increases laboratory productivity.

3. Is the SPE-03 Automated SPE System suitable for PFAS analysis?

Yes, this is one of its primary applications. It is designed to comply with key EPA methods for the analysis of PFAS in water.

4. Does the system use vacuum or positive pressure?

The system uses positive pressure to push liquids through the SPE columns, which provides better flow control and prevents column clogging.

5. What is the maximum sample volume the system can handle?

The system is capable of handling large volume samples, up to 4000 mL (4 liters).

Conclusion

The SPE-03 Automated SPE System offers reliable, unattended solid phase extraction for up to 8 samples. Its compact design and compliance with key EPA methods make it a valuable tool for environmental and analytical laboratories.
