Additional benefits of Headspace Trap

Dry-purge design—Efficiently removes water from analytes, eliminating the need for long bake-out periods and reducing sample-handling time by 25%.

Column isolation—To ensure GC/MS stability, column isolation allows carrier gas flow into the GC to be maintained during servicing, even when the Headspace unit is turned off.

Internal standard—An automated internal standard can be added to allow the instrument’s responses to be standardized. This provides better long-term precision and performance.

*Rapid blood-alcohol analysis

TurboMatrix Headspace systems are the perfect choice for detecting volatiles in biological fluids.

• Industry standard for the determination of alcohol levels in blood

• Delivers confirmatory results within 90 seconds for ethanol and other required analytes for blood analysis

• TurboMatrix HS-110 enables a full magazine of 110 vials to be processed in just 3 hours

*Residual solvents in pharmaceuticals

Static headspace is the ideal sample-preparation instrument for the determination of residual solvents in pharmaceuticals as prescribed by U.S. Pharmacopeia Chapter <467>, Method IV.

• Static Headspace sampler provides outstanding performance for Class I, II, and III solvents

• Pressure balanced design achieves outstanding precision and virtually no carryover across the analyte range

• Compatible with all of the commonly used dilutents

*BTEX in water samples

TurboMatrix Headspace systems yield outstanding results when determining contamination in environmental samples.

• Quick and easy method for screening complex environmental samples

• Ideal for identifying petroleum contaminants like benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, xylenes (BTEX) and mythyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE)

*Food and beverage applications

Food and beverage manufacturers use TurboMatrix Headspace systems to ensure the purity, safety and quality of their products with uncompromising accuracy.

• Characterize aroma and flavors

• Detect residual solvents and preservatives

• Assess fermentation characteristics of samples such as beer and wine.

For added flexibility to meet your laboratory’s changing requirements, five different PerkinElmer® TurboMatrix™ Headspace (HS) sampler models are available:

TurboMatrix HS-16

The entry-level model with 16 sample vials with overlapped thermostatting of one vial.

TurboMatrix HS-40

The mid-range model with 40 sample vials, overlapped thermostatting of up to 12 vials.

TurboMatrix HS-110

The high-capacity headspace sampler with 110  sample vials, overlapped thermostatting of up to 12 vials..

The instrument uses the same sample thermostatting technology as the HS-40.

TurboMatrix HS-40 Trap

This model includes all features of the HS-40 plus the built-in trap for lower detection limits.

TurboMatrix HS-110 Trap

This model includes all features of the HS-110 plus the built-in trap for lower detection limits.
