The Phoenix RDS (Robotic Diffusion Station) platform provides fully automated sampling and collection for either six or twelve vertical diffusion cells in a compact footprint, using the same heating and stirring blocks as are found in the DB-6. A third block holds a wash station and up to five additional media sources. Samples are collected into 12×32 vials with pre-slit septa. Controlled by Teledyne LABS Diffusion Master™ software, up to two RDS systems (24 vertical diffusion cells at once) can be operated independently from a single computer workstation.
Phoenix Diffusion Cells
Het Phoenix™ Diffusion Cell provides improved ease of use, high durability, and greater versatility as compared to conventional hand-blown vertical diffusion cells. Phoenix cells operate on dry heat; no water-jacketing is required, allowing construction from heavy-duty borosilicate glass held to very tight dimensional tolerances. The extract-and-replace sampling through the large diameter opening in the sampling arm accommodates standard pipette tips (~300 μL), simplifying the sampling process while reducing training and operating costs.
Rapid Sampling and Collection
Automated sampling using an angled probe simulates manual methods. The sample is withdrawn, collected, and then media is replaced. Volumetric accuracy meets or exceeds ± 1% or 25 μL. Staggered sampling with pre-programmed offset times makes test preparation easier. Rapid sampling requires just two minutes per cell. Carryover prevention is excellent. Typically as little as 200 μL is needed for rinsing, and custom wash protocols allow the analyst to clean the probe with one or more solvents at once or with air.
Programming Versatility
The RDS is designed to provide a broad range of programming capabilities to the analyst, including rapid setup of diffusion test parameters; configurable instructions to operators; sampling, wash, and rinse configurable on a cell-per-cell basis; speed and temperature changes during run; ability to add media to offset evaporation; ability to run different cell groups with different settings.
