Powered by a completely new design, the Thermo Scientific™ TriPlus™ 500 Headspace Autosampler delivers reliability and robustness for testing laboratories performing volatiles analysis.

Valve-and-loop technology and other innovative features ensure that this autosampler streamlines daily workflows, saving time with reliable unattended operation, optimizing sample throughput with expanded vial capability, and facilitating method portability with powerful software. Smartly integrated with the Thermo Scientific™ TRACE™ 1600 Series GC, this modular platform provides today's analytical testing and services laboratories with the productivity needed to succeed.

Thermo Scientific™ TriPlus™ 500 GC Headspace Autosampler: Valve-and-loop headspace injection principle

Reliability for analytical testing and services laboratories and versatility for research and method development.

The new design of the TriPlus 500 Headspace Autosampler incorporates innovative features for highly accurate analytical results, including:

New pneumatic controls for high precision and robustness

• Best injection repeatability for consistent results at every run.
• No carryover due to effective sample path purging.
• Automatic leak check during injection to ensure safe runs.

Thermo Scientific™ TriPlus™ 500 GC Headspace Autosampler: Long Sequence Area Counts Repeatability. 120 consecutive headspace injections of a 50 ppm ethanol solution in water (5 ml in 10 ml crimp top vial). Overall RSD%=0.7

Best sample integrity and ease-of-use via direct column connection

• A shorter sample path for high inertness towards polar compounds.
• Expanded high temperature applicability with higher recovery of high boiling point compounds.
• Simplified method set up with no transfer line and injector temperature settings required.

Thermo Scientific™ TriPlus™ 500 GC Headspace Autosampler: Recovery of a standard hydrocarbon mixture C10-C40 at high temperature operation, showing >60% recovery at 300°C

Compact yet scalable design for better laboratory efficiency and productivity

• Compact HS-GC design saves 30% of valuable bench space.
• Tailored throughput requirements with in-field scalability from 12 to 240 vials, requiring no additional space and no compromise on performance.
• Faster sample equilibration with the new Quick Spin Shaking design for maximal sensitivity in a shorter cycle time.

Comprehensive HS-GC configuration solution

• Available with direct column connection or transfer line for maximum configuration flexibility.
• When a direct column connection is not possible, the autosampler configured with a transfer line maintains high precision, efficient sample transfer.
• When configured with a transfer line, the TriPlus 500 HS autosampler is ideal for connecting to the Thermo Scientific™ TRACE™ 1600 Series GC with auxiliary oven or for connection to third-party GC instruments
• The TriPlus 500 HS with transfer line allows combined headspace and liquid injection in the same column, through operation with the TriPlus 100 LS or TriPlus RSH or RSH SMART autosampler on the same GC.

Software and system checks for compliance and data integrity

• Integrated with Thermo Scientific™ Chromeleon™ CDS software, Title 21 CFR Part 11-compliant.
• Easy analytical system performance qualification with the IQ/OQ/PQ Qualification Wizard and daily sequence performance checks with the System Suitability Test Wizard.
