CIA Advantage-xr – Canister preconcentration

Cryogen-free, automated canister and whole-air preconcentration system

UNITY–CIA Advantage-xr™ is an inert, multi-channel system designed for the automated analysis of VOCs in canisters and bags. It features capacity for up to 27 channels, operates completely without cryogen, and is compatible with both on-line and tube-based sampling. It is the ultimate solution for high-throughput laboratories performing canister-based methods such as US EPA TO-15/TO-15A and Chinese EPA HJ 759. It is also ideal for analysts requiring a versatile TD system capable of handling other whole-air samples as well as sorbent tubes.

UNITY–CIA Advantage-xr™ is also available with our award-winning Multi-Gas functionality. The Multi-Gas Enabled version is the only canister and bag thermal desorber independently certified for operation with a choice of three carrier gases: Helium, Nitrogen, and Hydrogen. Hydrogen carrier gas offers fast, cost-effective analysis and protects the laboratory against future Helium shortages.

Market-leading advantages of UNITY-CIA Advantage-xr

1. Eliminate Helium dependency: Use Hydrogen, Nitrogen, or Helium as a carrier gas for your canister and bag analysis with the Multi-Gas enabled UNITY–CIA Advantage-xr™.

2. Cost savings: Electrically-operated Peltier coolers allow analysis of compounds as volatile as C2 hydrocarbons without the inconvenience of liquid cryogen or the associated risk of flow-path ice blockages.

3. Versatility: The UNITY–CIA Advantage-xr™ integrates capabilities for canister and bag analysis, as well as on-line monitoring and single sorbent-tube desorption. Furthermore, automated 100-sorbent tube desorption can be achieved by adding the ULTRA-xr tube autosampler, allowing you to respond to new applications and customer requirements.

4. Enhance productivity and time saving: Up to 27 canisters or bags at high and low concentrations can be analyzed in a single unattended sequence, with sample throughput boosted by overlap mode.

5. Precision and method-compliance: Inbuilt internal standard capability, outstanding system linearity, and part-per-trillion (ppt) level Method Detection Limits (MDLs) ensure full compliance with key methods such as US EPA TO-15/TO-15A and Chinese EPA HJ 759.

6. Reliability: With unsurpassed water management from Dry-Focus3 (three-stage focusing) incorporated in Kori-xr™, achieve simultaneous analysis of all VOCs—including polar, non-polar, and monoterpenes—in humid air streams without using liquid cryogen.

7. Expanded sampling capabilities: Options for loop or metered addition enable a wide range of samples or standards to be run, with pressures ranging from sub-ambient to 50 psig, and concentrations from ppt to percent (%) levels.

8. Intelligent software: Uptime is maximized thanks to built-in parameters for several standard methods, automated self-checking diagnostics, and usage/maintenance counters.

9. Streamlined analysis: Heated internal lines and efficient purging combine to eliminate carryover between samples, resulting in fewer blanks.

10. Compatibility with GC and GC-MS from all major manufacturers: Minimizes the upfront investment required to investigate new TD markets for your lab. UNITY-xr can even be interfaced to direct MS instruments for high-throughput targeted analysis.
