CETAC introduces ASXpress™ Rapid Sample Introduction System
(Omaha, NE) – March 1, 2010

The ASXPRESS™ product line of Rapid Sample Introduction Systems delivers real time savings for ICP and ICP-MS analysis processes while preserving analytical data quality and system stability. These benefits are further complemented by reduced ICP/ICP-MS maintenance costs and by the ASXPRESS™ system’s reliable operation, day in, day out.  Simple installation makes incorporation of the ASXPRESS™ quick, easy and effective.
How does it work? Coupled with the industry standard CETAC autosampler, the ASXPRESS™ reduces the time normally required for autosampler movement, sample uptake, stabilization, and rinse operations, thereby reducing sample run times significantly.  The ASXPRESS™ high speed vacuum pump loads sample and flushes the sample uptake path substantially faster than a conventional peristaltic pump. Liquid flow path washout characteristics are exceptional, thanks to CETAC’s uniquely designed liquid flow system.  Additionally, the system design allows multiple functions to occur simultaneously.  The result?  More sample throughput in less time!!!

It’s simple.  The ASXPRESS™ easily integrates into the conventional sample flow path without requiring invasive modification to analysis methods.  An easy to use Windows® based settings tool configures the device, with no additional software needed for operation.

The ASXPRESS™ system is comprised of two main components: an electronics module and a valve/pump module. The separate modules provide the smallest possible injection valve footprint, allowing the valve to be placed close to the instrument nebulizer.
The ASXPRESS™ product line is compatible with CETAC, ASX-260, ASX-500, ASX-510, ASX-520, ASX-520HS, EXR-8, ASX-1400 and ASX-1600. Autosamplers and can easily be fitted to samplers currently in operation, or can be purchased as a full system, including the ASXPRESS™ and an autosampler of your choice.
