Flexible, high-capacity autosampler for GC and GC-MS with advanced sample prep automation
The TriPlus RSH Autosampler is a versatile robotic sampling platform designed to maximize automation, precision, and productivity in gas chromatography workflows. Fully compatible with Thermo Scientific™ GC and GC-MS systems, it supports liquid, headspace (HS), and SPME/SPME Arrow injections, with optional modules for µSPE, ITEX-DHS, and automated sample preparation. The unique Automatic Tool Change (ATC) system allows the autosampler to switch between up to six syringes in a single sequence, enabling unattended workflows for complex multistep protocols.
