Smart valve

An absolute angle sensor checks every valve switch.

The 6-port, 2-position injection valve assembly

Simple and robust

One main electronics board and few moving parts. The needle line stays at low pressure, so no high-pressure tube flexes during motion.

Inside the autosampler: CoreXY gantry, needle axis, valve and syringe cartridge

Safe

  • Door sensor
  • Needle crash detection
  • Pressure monitoring on the sample line
  • Leak catch cup

Open control

USB-C with a simple, documented text command protocol. It shows up as a serial port, so any software that can open one can run it.

USB-C / VCP

  • Python
  • LabVIEW
  • MATLAB
  • C#
  • Node.js
  • Any serial terminal
