2. Hardware Interfaces

The AutoSampler8 connects directly to the SmartSampler2 using the dedicated Module port.
Key hardware elements include:

Module Connector

  • Provides power, communication, and control
  • Weatherproof locking connector for outdoor use

8-Position Sampling Manifold

  • Directs gas or liquid flow to the selected sample position
  • Supports sealed bags, vials, or external containers

Dual Pumps

  • High-Flow Pump: For fast flushing and clearing the system
  • Peristaltic Pump: For precise and low-shear sample transfer

Inline Flush Valve

  • Minimizes cross-contamination between sample positions
  • Ensures cleaner transitions, especially in gas sampling applications

External Tubing Interface

  • Compatible with standard tubing sizes for gas or liquid feed
  • Supports flexible pump height and tubing length depending on installation

Module-to-Module Support

  • Up to five AutoSampler8 Modules can be operated from one SmartSampler2
  • Each module can be individually controlled and logged
