AOC-20i Automatic Sampling System

Description

The AOC-20i from Shimadzu is an automatic sampling system designed for gas chromatography. It facilitates automated liquid and headspace injection, handling sample volumes from 0.1 to 200 µl. The system can be configured to process between 6 and 12 samples directly, with capacity expandable to 150 samples when used with an optional autosampler carousel. It offers high precision, with injection precision better than 0.3% and a carryover rate of less than 0.005%. The design includes features such as an enhanced needle guide to minimize syringe damage and a lightweight construction that allows for easy removal for instrument maintenance. This unit can function as a direct replacement for the autoinjector used with the HP5890 GC system.
