Teledyne Tekmar AQUATek LVA

The J.J. Wilbur Company is proud to offer the Teledyne Tekmar AQUATek LVA. A full automation solution for routine analysis of waters by purge and trap concentration. It utilizes a fixed volume loop that is filled with liquid sample, internal and/or surrogate standards are added, and then the sample is transferred to the Lumin or Stratum PTC. Upon completion of the purge step by the concentrator, the AQUATek LVA then initiates a clean up cycle where the sample loop and concentrator sparger are cleaned with 90o C water via the two-stage water heater.

The AQUATek LVA offers all the capabilities you need for compliance with USEPA Methods for the analysis of aqueous volatile organic samples, including a true closed-system technique for sample handling and vial cooling. The closed-system sampling technique and vial chiller ensure the integrity of the sample during the sample preparation process, greatly minimizing volatile organics loss as well as reducing labor cost.

Applications

  • Environmental 

  • Food and Beverage 

  • Pharmaceutical 

  • Flavor, Fragrance, and Packaging 

  • Petrochemical 

  • Plastics and Polymers

Product Benefits

  • Equipped with a fixed volume PEEK™ sample loop with volume choices of 5, 10, 20 and 25 mL. The sample loop is filled with a liquid sample from the sample vial via a pressurization step.​

  • 84-Position Chilled Sample Tray

  • Vial Chiller Tray - The vial chiller allows for sample cooling. The chiller requires the use of an external recirculating cooling bath (optional accessory) for operation.​ 

  • Precision-machined manifold reduces plumbing connections by 60% over previous designs and results in improved system reliability.  

  • Hot Water Rinsing up to 90 °C for rinsing.​

  • Integrated pH Probe 

  • XYZ Automation 

  • Stackable Configuration with the Teledyne Tekmar Lumin to minimize instrument footprint

  • Internal Standards - Internal standards/surrogates are stored in two 15 mL amber glass vessels to prevent transmission of UV radiation. Vessels are sealed with a PEEK™ cap to prevent adsorption and contamination of the standard solution.  Each standard vessel can deliver volumes of 1, 2, 5, 10, or 20 μL to each sample. Each standard injection valve can be used independently or in combination.​

  • Barcode – The AQUATek LVA has the ability to connect to a standard barcode reader in order to scan vial barcodes and automatically have the vial ID number added into the TekLink™ schedule.​

  • Blanking Water Reservoir – Reservoir included with system provides cleanup water and auto-blanking, which frees up vial space in the sample tray for increased throughput.​
