The A-2 Series syringes are designed for tapered and internal threaded containers with standard needles. As the most popular of VICI’s syringe product lines, they offer all the advantages of VICI Precision Sampling’s A-Series syringe, plus:
-
Push button valve that allows instantaneous injection with ample storage to 250 psi in syringes as small as 25 µl. This is useful with small liquid samples containing low-boiling components, which would be lost through evaporation using ordinary syringes.
-
Smaller volumes e.g., 25 µl and 50 µl are ideal for small liquid samples containing low-boiling components.
-
Flexibility for use in a variety of containers, including tapered, internal and external threaded containers, and for use with vacuum bulbs or lines.
-
A special needle and needle connector designed specifically for chromatography and other analytical sampling, with significantly lower dead volume than conventional-style Luer connectors.
-
The positive rear stop (in 250 µl and larger sizes) prevents plunger blowout at elevated pressures, protecting against sample loss or operator injury.
In addition, the A-2 syringe has all the standard Pressure-Lok features, such as a PTFE plunger tip, PTFE-sealed needle, and ultra-smooth bore. Replacement components are available for easy repair.
