Shimadzu, one of the world leaders in analytical instrumentation, has announced the release of the AOC-30 series of automatic sample injection systems for gas chromatographs.

In addition to high basic performance levels, the new AOC-30 series offers enhanced functionality that ensures reliable, long-term operation and supports working remotely. The space-saving design makes it easier to mount on GC or GC/MS systems with limited space availability and facilitates system expansion based on analytical objectives.

Equipped with unique technologies and functionalities, the AOC-30 series automatic sample injection systems offer the automation, productivity and remote operability needed for next-generation laboratories. The new AOC-30 series helps ensure that anyone can operate the instrument and obtain expert-level results for routine analysis work in pharmaceutical, chemical and environmental fields.

Flexible upgrades
The AOC-30 series has several upgrade possibilities:
• The AOC-30i Single Tower autoinjector carries 30 samples and provides intelligent wash possibilities with 4 different solvents
• The AOC-30i Dual Tower features higher sample-throughput by simultaneous injection with two autoinjectors on one GC-2030
• As automatic sample injection system, the combined AOC-30i autoinjector and AOC-20sU sampler cover an increased capacity of 150 vials
• Automatic sample injection system: the AOC-30i Dual Tower with sampler achieves high throughput with a capacity of up to 150 vials.
