Teledyne CETAC Technologies Introduces the APS-7450V Volumetric Sample Preparation Station
Introducing the fastest sample processing system for wear metals analysis on the market... APS-7450V.
Omaha, NE USA / April 21, 2021 - Teledyne CETAC introduces their new APS-7450V Volumetric Sample Preparation Station for the oils condition monitoring industry. Sample testing in this industry is critical to understand the operational health of machinery to prevent breakdown and costly repairs. Lubricating oils, coolants and hydraulic fluids are analyzed for metal concentrations, which are used to indicate when maintenance is needed to prevent damage or impending breakdown of machinery.
Over the years, wear metals analysis has seen a decrease in ICP analysis time, approximately 30 seconds per sample. Sample preparation time has not seen the same decrease until now. Initial feedback on the APS-7450V is showing that users are doubling the sample throughput and it is outperforming the competitors in both price and performance.
“I am excited about the APS-7450V because it will fit into and improve existing sample workflows in wear metals laboratories. This new system will remove the sample preparation bottleneck that exists in many labs allowing them to have better sample throughput and faster turnaround times" stated Jacob Herrington, Teledyne CETAC Technical Product Manager for Automation.
“The APS-7450V sets itself apart from others due to its simplicity, durability and speed" added Jacob Herrington. “It has simple fluidics, user friendly software and very few consumables making it easy to operate day after day. This new autosampler is built on the same platform as the well-known and robust Oils 7000 series by Teledyne CETAC. It is very reliable and will perform well for years to come. Most importantly the APS-7450V is fast."
Benefits of the new APS-7450V include:
- 20 seconds per sample for a 1:10 dilution with a final volume of 5 mL
- Excellent precision, accuracy and reproducibility
- Consistent performance across a wide range of viscosities
- Intuitive software
- Automated sample mixing
- Accommodates a variety of sample bottles, cups or tubes
- Dilution range 5× to 100×
- Minimal carryover
