The NAICS code for this acquisition is 334516 Analytical Laboratory Instrument Manufacturing, with a size standard of 1,000.
The robotic autosampler for the Gerstel thermal desorption (TD) system is the only TD system that has been designed and tested for use on the selected ion flow tube mass spectrometer (SIFT-MS) system. The SIFT-MS system provides high sensitivity and real-time capabilities which is now paired with the flexibility and performance of the Gerstel TD 3.5+ for rapid analysis of TD tubes. No other robotic autosampler for thermal desorption system was considered because they have not been designed or developed for use with the SIFT-MS system. The Gerstel TD system is the only TD system that is currently being used with the SIFT-MS system.
