LAMBDA OMNICOLL: The Versatile Fraction Collector and Autosampler for Controlled Environments

For the scientific and industrial laboratories, finding a system that can provide automatic sampling while fitting into compact spaces is a significant challenge. The LAMBDA OMNICOLL Mini Fraction Collector and Autosampler has been specifically designed to meet these demands while offering flexibility in its placement and control. Whether you are working in a glove box, laminar flow hood, or biosafety cabinet, the LAMBDA OMNICOLL integrates seamlessly to collect fractions or automatically sample in the controlled environments.

Compact Design of OMNICOLL Mini for Versatile Use

The LAMBDA OMNICOLL Mini's compact design is a critical feature that allows it to fit effortlessly in enclosed spaces like glove boxes, laminar hoods, and biosafety cabinets. Such environments are crucial in applications involving sterile or containment-sensitive procedures, where any external contamination could affect the results. With this capability, the OMNICOLL ensures reliable performance in these controlled environments, offering a unique advantage for researchers requiring sterile or inert atmosphere conditions.

Integrated Autosampler Capability

One of the standout features of the LAMBDA OMNICOLL is its dual functionality as both a fraction collector and autosampler. When connected to a LAMBDA peristaltic pump or a third-party peristaltic pump, the OMNICOLL becomes a fully functional autosampler, capable of collecting samples precisely at the desired intervals. The easy integration with external pumps ensures compatibility with a wide range  of setups, enhancing its usability across different laboratory applications, from HPLC fractionation to bioreactor sampling.

LAMBDA OMNICOLL Fraction Collector-Autosampler can be adopted to small spaces (Mini version) and also used to collect unlimited samples. 

Remote Control for Automation

The LAMBDA OMNICOLL supports automation through its remote control capabilities, offering a high level of flexibility in operation. Using an RS-232 interface, the OMNICOLL can be remotely controlled by programmable logic controllers (PLC) or software such as SCADA, allowing seamless integration into fully automated workflows. Remote control through analog signals is possible.

For added convenience, LAMBDA supplies the necessary remote control signals and RS communication protocols, enabling easy setup and immediate operation. This makes it easier for labs to adapt the OMNICOLL to existing automation systems, minimizing downtime and maximizing efficiency.

Recipients: 

The fraction collector can handle nearly all kinds of sampling tubes and laboratory sampling racks or recipients (drops to litres) available on the market:

• Microwell plates, e.g., 96-well microtiter plates
• Micro tubes, Eppendorf tubes, titer tubes, test tubes
• Scintillation vials
• For large Volumes: Beakers, bottles, flasks

The OMNICOLL Mini  Fraction Collector can fills two racks. In case of third racks needs to be filled then the 'gear bar extension' can be used to increase the length of the collector.

Standard racks supplied with the LAMBDA OMNICOLL Fraction Collector:

• Tube rack for 6×15 tubes of diam. 12 mm
• Tube rack for 5×12 tubes of diam. 16 mm
• Tube rack for 4×10 tubes of diam. 20 mm
• Tube rack for 4×10 tubes of diam. 25 mm
• Tube rack for 3×8 tubes of diam. 30 mm
• Double sided microtube rack for 8×12 microtubes of diam. 11 mm (1.5 and 2ml) and diam. 8 mm (0.5 ml)
• Tube rack for 5×10 cryotubes of diam. 12 mm

Key Benefits of the LAMBDA OMNICOLL mini Fraction collector Autosampler:
