ULTRA-xr Markes International

100-tube autosampler for unattended high-throughput thermal desorption analysis.

ULTRA-xr™ is a high-throughput autosampler that adds to the UNITY-xr thermal desorption unit, for the rapid and unattended analysis of VOCs and SVOCs from up to 100 sample sorbent tubes in a single sequence.

ULTRA-xr is ideal for analytical laboratories wishing to upgrade their existing UNITY-xr system to process multiple sample tubes efficiently, or upgrade their ability to re-collect split samples.

Product benefits

• Enhance throughput – with capacity for up to 100 tubes and all the performance advantages of UNITY-xr, you can generate reliable data all weekend.

• Peace of mind – by automating sample re-collection for repeat analysis, ULTRA-xr offers simple method/data validation and overcomes the ‘one-shot’ limitation of other systems.

• Future-proof your lab – ULTRA–UNITY-xr systems are compatible with on-line and canister automation – allowing you to expand as the needs of your lab grow.

• Save time and money – free-up your laboratory staff with robust automation for your world-leading UNITY-xr thermal desorber.

Features

• Automated, cryogen-free, unattended operation for up to 100 sample tubes.

• Confidence in results through quantitative sample re-collection of split flows.

• Robust design accommodates standard 3½″ sample tubes.

• Compatibility with a variety of analytes over a wide concentration range makes the UNITY–ULTRA-xr ideal for most TD–GC–MS applications.

• Method compliance aided by leak-testing, water management and addition of internal standard.

• Enhanced traceability of samples using barcodes and RFID TubeTAGs.

• High-precision parts result in increased robustness.
