Hamilton 80230 Syringe: A precision solution for sensitive analytical applications
The Hamilton Medical 80230 syringe is a high-precision laboratory instrument designed for applications requiring ultra-fine dosing, particularly in gas chromatography. This syringe from the 1700 series is specially designed to ensure optimum precision and reliability in split/splitless injections, a technique used to introduce samples into a heated injector via a septum. Thanks to its gastight design, it eliminates any possibility of leakage, ensuring consistent delivery volumes and reproducible analyses.
The 80230 model offers a volume of 25 µL, making it ideal for applications requiring precise injections of small volumes. It is equipped with a removable needle (RN), which facilitates replacement or cleaning, thus extending the life of the syringe. Its fine 22s gauge needle, 51 mm long, has a type 2 tip, i.e. a curved and bevelled tip, perfectly suited to soft septa and applications requiring gentle penetration.
The fluid path of this syringe is made of highly resistant materials, including stainless steel (SST), borosilicate glass and PTFE, offering excellent chemical and thermal resistance. The 80230 syringe is also designed to withstand pressures up to 1000 psig (68.9 bar), making it suitable for harsh working conditions while maintaining sample integrity.
In addition to its mechanical robustness, the 80230 syringe stands out for its ability to be sterilised by autoclaving or gas, ensuring a high level of hygiene and reusability, which is essential in environments where cross-contamination must be avoided.
The precise design of its barrel, with an inner diameter of 0.729 mm, ensures consistent and accurate volume delivery. In addition, its standard dead volume is limited to only 1.13 µL, significantly reducing sample loss, a crucial advantage for analyses requiring high precision.
The Hamilton 80230 syringe combines durability, sterility, precision and ease of maintenance. It is an ideal solution for research laboratories, pharmaceutical laboratories and all facilities where injection reliability and repeatability are paramount.
