HTA 3200A Premium Automatic Liquid Sampler
Description
HTA 3200A Premium Automatic Liquid Sampler Overview
The HTA 3200A Premium Automatic Liquid Sampler for GC & GC/MS is an automated liquid sampling system designed to support high‑throughput gas chromatography workflows. The instrument accommodates up to 209 sample vials arranged in removable racks, allowing long analytical sequences to be run with minimal operator intervention. The HTA 3200A Premium Automatic Liquid Sampler is commonly selected by laboratories upgrading from manual injection or lower‑capacity sampling systems.
Liquid handling is performed using a motor‑driven syringe mechanism with programmable aspirate, air gap, and injection steps to ensure repeatable sample transfer across routine GC and GC/MS methods. The system supports unattended operation and is commonly used in laboratories processing large sample batches where consistency and workflow efficiency are critical.
Available from Alliant Scientific, an authorized HTA distributor, supplying the HTA 3000A Automatic Liquid Autosampler with full support for system configuration, installation.
