Air bubbles form when the amount of dissolved air in a solution exceeds the saturated solubility.  Gastorr AG-42 series degassing unit is a compact and cost-effective degassing equipment to remove dissolved gases. It maintains a vacuum pressure on the outside of a gas permeable tubing to remove smaller molecules such as oxygen and nitrogen, from the flowing solution.  The degassing unit prevents problems associated with bubble formation in flow lines and improve fluidic instrument reproducibility and accuracy. 

Key Features

• CPU control achieves stable degassing
  
• Automatic cleaning function prevents vacuum pump deterioration
• Independent chamber design prevents solvent contamination
  
• Error detection alerts for degassing operation failure
  
• Space saving compact design
• Applicable to max flow rate of 10mL/min
• Vacuum range： 100 hPa fixed
• Wetted materials: Teflon, ETFE, PTFE
• 2 or 4 channels configurations are available 

Typical Applications

• Reduce baseline noise for UV detection
• High-sensitivity analysis using fluorescence detection in analytical instruments
• Improve dispense accuracy and reliability in diagnostics or life science instrument
  
• Remove bubbles in flow lines for microfluidics or lab-on-a-chip systems
• HPLC solvent degassing
