ASXpress Rapid Sample Introduction System Operator’s Manual Chapter 1: Introduction 1.1 Rapid Sample Introduction System Standard Components The ASXPRESS Rapid Sample Introduction System module cases are made of a high-strength aluminum alloy with an epoxy powder coating finish. The 6- port injection valve is constructed of polyphenylene sulphide (PPS), an inert and dimensionally stable material. The tubing is all inert PTFE (waste tubing materials may vary by application). The ASXPRESS system operates reliably under a wide variety of conditions. Components in the sample flow path are inert, non-metallic materials; when used at temperatures less than 135°C, they can withstand repeated exposure to the following substances: • Predominantly aqueous solutions of strong acids (less than 40%). • Common organic solvents such as acetone, alcohols, ethyl acetate, Methylethylketone (MEK), petroleum oils and derived fuels, tetrachloroethylene, toluene, and xylene. CAUTION Prolonged or repeated exposure to temperatures greater than 135°C and to the following substances can cause failure of the flow path components: • Solutions of concentrated acids (greater than 40%). • Partially halogenated hydrocarbons or extremely aggressive organic solvents (chloroform, methylene dichloride, 1,1,2-trichloroethane).
