Agilent PL-SP 260VS Sample Preparation System Technical Overview
The Agilent PL-SP 260VS is a sample preparation system designed for the manual dissolution and filtration of samples prior to analysis by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). It combines controlled heating across a temperature range of 30 to 260 °C with gentle agitation, selectable from 85 to 230 rpm.
The system allows for the dissolution and filtration of samples at temperatures up to 260 °C using a heater/shaker unit. Filtration is achieved using a unique hand-held pipettor with filter magazines containing stainless steel frits or glass fiber filters, specifically suited for removing fine, insoluble particulates such as carbon black from high molecular weight polymers.
