Automated Sample Tracking

sampleTRAX S – Intelligent Barcode Tracking and ICPMS Analysis

At the touch of a button, sampleTRAX S automatically identifies samples, imports the required analytical protocol(s), performs each analysis, reports results, and tracks sample status throughout the entire process.

Features & Benefits

  • Barcode Reading: Each sample’s barcode scan automatically triggers specific analytical protocols. Multiple samples of the same type can be automatically grouped together by calibration, dilution or sequence.
  • Predefined Analytical Protocols: Minimize variability and user error across multiple instruments
  • PPT/PPQ Autocalibration: Built around the industry-leading prepFAST S, with syringe-driven sample handling for sub-ppt detection limits
  • Unified Measurement and Reporting: A central database standardizes chemical analysis across multiple instruments, ensuring inter-lab comparability
  • Available Automatic Bottle Uncapper: Fluorocapper safely removes and replaces sample lids at the time of analysis, minimizing exposure to hazardous chemicals while maintaining sample integrity

Fluorocapper

The Fluorocapper option performs automatic bottle or vial uncapping. It safely removes and replaces the sample lids at the time of analysis, minimizing exposure to hazardous chemicals while maintaining sample integrity. Models available to uncap 250, 100, and 60 mL containers.

Multi-Standard Selector

The Multi-Standard Selector option provides quick selection between four different calibration sources without the need to reprime the system, including:

  • Multiple matrix-matched calibrations
  • Extended range calibrations from multiple stock bottles
  • Multi-elemental calibrations from stock with different matrixes, elements, & concentrations

Multi-Standard Selector


Syringe Pumped Rinse Station

The Syringe Pumped Rinse Station option for sampleTRAX replaces the standard flowing UPW rinse with a desired chemical.

Dual Transfer Lines

This sampleTRAX option provides two discrete sample flow paths. This is ideal for running incompatible chemicals in the same analysis procedure, and reduces the opportunity for contamination.

Autotuning Selection

The Autotuning Selection option delivers fully automated selection of instrument tuning solutions from four supply bottles. This allows for instrument tuning procedures to be performed automatically on demand, without requiring operator intervention.
