For filling highly viscous samples without breaking a sweat

It is common laboratory practice to heat highly viscous samples before filling them into a measuring instrument. However, manual filling takes time and effort - and the hot syringes can sometimes be just too hot to handle. To take the pain out of heating and filling crude oil, chocolate, and the like, Anton Paar provides the Xsample 352 H and Xsample 452 H heated sample changers.

The electrically heated magazine of Xsample 452 H heats up to 44 samples up to 80 °C and fills them into the connected DMA Generation M density meter. For heating and filling single samples, Xsample 352 H is available. Both sample changers clean the system after measurement, so users are not exposed to toxic solvents. Xsample 452 H also recovers the samples for further processing.

And laboratory technicians already using a DMA density meter need not dismay: a new Xsample can simply be connected and work started immediately: “This is Plug and Play at its best,” explains the Product Manager for the Xsample series at Anton Paar. “The density meter recognizes the Xsample and activates all settings in the software. Retrofitting takes just minutes.”
