Gas chromatography thermal desorber TD100-xr DAAMS

high-throughput

Markes’ new TD100-xr DAAMS and UNITY–ULTRA-xr™ DAAMS systems are high-throughput, automated thermal desorption instruments for streamlined analysis of 4½″ Depot Area Air Monitoring Systems (DAAMS) tubes. Markes’ TD100-xr DAAMS and UNITY–ULTRA-xr™ DAAMS are ideal for laboratories needing to analyse chemical agents for homeland security applications using 4½″ tubes, with versatile upgrade options, including for regular 3½″ tubes. The new DAAMS systems are based on Markes’ tried-and-tested ‘xr’ systems, which include the latest generation of cryogen-free trapping technology. Benefits Enhanced throughput – Capacity for up to 100 × 4½" tubes and the ability to use overlap mode allow you to maximise productivity (for example, by running samples unattended all weekend). Peace of mind – Quantitative sample re-collection for repeat analysis allows simple method/data validation, overcomes the ‘one-shot’ limitation of other systems and enables sample archiving. Broad analyte range – Short, ultra-inert flow path ensures compatibility with a wide range of chemical agents and other analytes from C3 to C44. Low running costs – Rapid operation of the electrically-cooled focusing trap eliminates the cost of expensive and hazardous cryogen, and the associated risk of ice blockage of the flow path. Secure, reliable analysis – DiffLok caps eliminate the possibility of sample contamination and/or analyte loss, whilst removing the need to uncap samples. Simplified chain of custody – The on-board TubeTAG read/write functionality automatically updates tube and sample information during analysis.
