Product overview
The TitraLab AS1000 series is an automatic sample changer used in analytical laboratories with the
TitraLab AT1000 series analyzers. There are three sampler models:
• AS1000.XX.20090: Sampler for TitraLab AT1000 series, 20 beakers, 90 mL
• AS1000.XX.30050: Sampler for TitraLab AT1000 series, 30 beakers, 50 mL
• AS1000.XX.12150: Sampler for TitraLab AT1000 series, 12 beakers, 50/150 mL
The sampler is PC-controlled with the TM1000 software. The instrument has a tray that holds the
sample beakers. Refer to Table 1 for instrument configurations. The rotating module turns the tray to
change the sample position while the lifting module moves sensors and tubes up and down into each
sample. The sampler has an integrated magnetic stirrer. Use the sampler for a wide variety of
aqueous sample applications. Refer to the analyzer and software documentation for more
information. Refer to Figure 1.
Note: The type of tray, probe holder and beakers is dependent on the model. Refer to Table 1.

• This instrument is for indoor use only.
• The power supply connector on the rear panel must be easily accessible so the power can be
disconnected quickly in case of emergency.
• Keep the instrument away from temperature extremes, including heaters, direct sunlight and other
heat sources.
• Put the instrument on a stable and level surface in a well ventilated place.
• Make sure that there is at least 15 cm (6 in.) of space on all sides of the instrument to prevent
electrical parts from overheating.
• Do not operate or keep the instrument in dusty, damp or wet locations.
• Always keep the surface of the instrument and all accessories dry and clean.

Troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause Solution
The blue indicator LED is off. The tray was moved manually. Start the instrument or send an order from
the software.
The tray does not stop at
position 1 or at any specified
position.
The sampler does not sense the
beaker or position 1 of the tray.
Restart the instrument. If the rod does not
move to the upper position and the tray stops
at position 1, contact technical support.
The sensor holder does not
complete the vertical
movement.
There is an internal damage Contact technical support.
The beakers are not aligned.
The sensors are not in the
correct position.
There is too much noise when
the sampler operates.
The tray or one of the modules
was not correctly installed.
Make sure that all instrument components
are correctly installed.
