Minimal Operation Required


               With the extended rinsing function, operators do not need to be concerned   Product
               about carryover that compromises data quality.
               Preset methods eliminate the need for method development in many applications.

 ProActive Rinsing  Product
 While measuring multiple samples, the rinsing sequence can be started early by sending the autosam-
 pler probe to rinse while collecting data using sample already in the suction line. This greatly
 reduces measurement time and conserves sample.
