Shimadzu SIL-10A

The Shimadzu SIL-10A is a used autosampler built to automate sample injection for HPLC systems, and this unit remains in working order for laboratories seeking to add automated sample handling to their analytical workflow. It draws precise volumes from sample vials and injects them into the chromatographic flow path, reducing manual handling and improving the reproducibility of injection volumes across long analytical runs. This automation frees analysts from repetitive manual injection tasks and helps maintain method consistency. Laboratories running series of samples for quality control, stability studies, or research protocols rely on autosamplers like the SIL-10A to keep throughput high while minimizing operator variability. It integrates well with Shimadzu LC-10A series pumps and detectors, forming a complete automated HPLC system capable of unattended overnight or batch runs. Its tray capacity and programmable injection sequences make it suitable for both routine testing and more involved multi sample studies. As a used component, the SIL-10A offers laboratories an affordable way to automate an existing manual HPLC setup or replace an aging autosampler within a legacy system. It is well suited to academic labs, contract testing facilities, and quality control departments that value dependable automated injection without the price tag of a new system. This unit provides continued utility for labs committed to maintaining established LC-10A platforms.
