Picarro's High-Throughput A0212 Vaporizer is designed for extremely high sample throughput. When run with Picarro's L2130-i and L2120-i Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy analyzers, the High-Throughput Vaporizer offers unbeatable guaranteed precision and simple operations. The vaporizer delivers 750 injections per 24-hour period for a total sample throughput of 125 per day. Picarro offers guaranteed drift specification on CRDS analyzers equipped with the A0212. The Picarro system only experiences minimal drift and requires infrequent calibration. In fact, our water analyzers have run for 16 hours non-stop with no calibration at all, still collecting data within Picarro's guaranteed precision performance specifications.
For these reasons, an L2130-i (equipped with the A0212) can produce sample throughput 50% greater or more than other isotopic water systems that must run standards every four samples to correct for rapid and dramatic drift. The A0212 vaporizer uses disposable inlet liners that can be replaced within one minute. These liners reduce incidence of fouled lines and eliminate the need for complicated and time-consuming inlet and line cleaning procedures required for other analyzers. The Picarro A0212 vaporizer is fully integrated with Picarro's L2130-i for lab use. In summary, the Picarro High-Throughput A0212 vaporizer offers guaranteed precision, simple maintenance, and high throughput that represents a marked improvement over existing vaporizer systems.
