Overview
The RapidFire 300 sample management system is designed to perform solid phase extraction and well plate preparation for mass spectrometry (MS) and LC. This platform is used for research applications in pharmacokinetics (ADME) and other clinical biochemical reactions, through automated processes that require minimal user interaction. The RapidFire 300 was discontinued by Agilent for an updated model, but prepares samples for label free high-throughput screening, utilizes SPE, automates processes monitored by software, and was designed to integrate with existing MS / LC systems.
Compatible MS: Agilent MassHunter Triple Quad, AB/Sciex Triple Quad, Thermo Triple Quad (may include others)
Condition Description
The RapidFire 300 is in excellent cosmetic condition without any noticeable blemishes and no signs of damage. The technicians evaluated this instrument for functionality and cleanliness, confirming both aspects were present. The RapidFire should be incorporated into a larger system and performs sample well plate preparation; this advertisement does not include a mass spectrometer, analysis software, nor liquid chromatography instruments. The controlling software requires a network connection and can be integrated into the MS software (not included). The original shipping crate will be included with this purchase.
Technical Evaluation
The technicians inspected this instrument and noted that it was well maintained. Using the date stamp from the PC, it appears this system may have been manufactured in 2010. This instrument arrived with the original factory shipping crate and has data from use in 2010-2011, with previous digital folders for the MS Agilent MassHunter (not included). It is possible that the data was uploaded to the network after 2011 which would explain why there were no other records. The RapidFire 300 includes the Caliper Twisted plate handler for stacking and moving well plates which was confirmed functional. The Dell T3500 workstation has RapidFire UI, Integrater, and Twister software pre-installed. The peristaltic pump can be controlled using the RapidFire software, but the vacuum pump and regulator are simple on/off controlled.
Use
When starting the system, power all components on and begin with the RapidFire control panel software. Open the configuration using the desktop cfg folder and press the 'start' button. The status symbols ("lights") will illuminate green when contact is made. The RapidFire UI software can be activated when connecting with the DHCP network, allowing the valves to home and to control the pump.
