The document describes the Integrated Autosampler (I-AS) produced by Agilent Technologies for ultra-trace analysis. It is specifically designed for the Agilent 7500 Series ICP-MS and enables the high sensitivity of the 7500 Series to be fully utilized. The I-AS is ideal for semiconductor applications and any application involving ultra-trace analysis of elements where laboratory contamination may be a concern, such as clinical applications and seawater measurement. It can also automate various QA/QC control operations, including EPA protocols, when used with Agilent's optional Intelligent Sequencing Software.
The Agilent I-AS Clean Integrated Autosampler is a fast, flexible, and high-precision device specifically designed for ultra-trace analysis. It is compatible with the Agilent 7500 Series ICP-MS and the Agilent 4500 Series ICP-MS (with a stand). The system minimizes the risk of sample contamination through non-metal materials, a continuously flowing rinse port, and a design where no moving parts pass over sample vials.
The autosampler features an open sample introduction area for easy access and space optimization. It accommodates various sample volumes, from small volumes up to 50-100 mL, using different tray configurations. The system allows for fully automated QA/QC control operations and can be set up via the ChemStation software suite.
