HTA’s 3000A autosampler is designed for GC and GC/MS applications. Empowered by Artificial Intelligence (machine learning), it offers superior performance, high reliability and unmatched usability through intuitive operations.

The 3000A series autosampler is equipped with a large touch screen interface, providing easier system accessibility and usability. The touch screen eliminates drilldown and simplifies instrument control for both novices and experienced users.

The 3000A is the most compact autosampler in the market (no requirement for additional bench space) while offering top-class sample capacity. 3000A is available in the standard version with 121 positions for 2ml vials, while optional racks are also available. For alternative sample capacities, please check 3100A (15 vials) or 3200A (209 vials).

It can be easily installed on the popular (in addition to many less well known) brands of GC and GC/MS system available in today’s market, and can be configured to serve up to two injectors on the most of the supported GCs.

AI brings intuitiveness and superior performances to laboratories. Through these functionalities the 3000A offers: 

• self-diagnostic teststhat enable predictive maintenance strategies
• continuous optimization of the workflow, extended flexible working style 
• automated consumables tracking
• GC inlet septum test 

Additionally, connection with service support is dramatically simplified by usage of a dynamic on-screen QR code.

The autosampler handles the most sophisticated sampling techniques (ambient headspace, multi-phase, small volume and controlled speeds to work with a wide range of sample viscosities), injection (priority, with the internal standard technique, dual simultaneous injections in high-throughput and confirmation mode) and syringe washes (with sample or with solvent, single or double wash step capability). It can use syringes with volumes from 500 nanolitres to 100 microliters¹ to support a variety of injection techniques, ranging from split/split-less to PTV and on-column inlets.

The 3000A can help you process samples more quickly and obtain better data. It is the fastest liquid autosampler available in the market: Injection is performed in less than 100ms. Fast-injection technology ensures the best possible peak shape, while maximizing the accuracy of your results.

Applicable but not necessary for operation:
Drivers are available which allow operation of the 3x00A Series from within Chemstation (Rev.B or higher) OpenLab Chemstation, MSD Chemstation and many other Chromatography Data Systems.  HTA Autosampler Manager Software is also available to operate the 3x00A Series outwith the data handling environment.
