Delivering timely and accurate PFAS results is more critical than ever. With rising regulatory pressure and sample volumes, many labs are under increasing pressure to meet promised turnaround times. Manual SPE remains a common bottleneck, especially when dealing with complex matrices.
PromoChrom’s SPE-03 is designed to streamline PFAS extraction and improve efficiency. In a comparison by Orange County Water District (OCWD) using EPA Method 537.1, manual SPE processed around 30 bottles per technician in a 9–10 hour shift, while the SPE-03 handled up to 48 in the same timeframe, a 60% increase in throughput. Unlike manual methods that require constant input, the SPE-03 offers walk-away automation, delivering compliant, consistent results with minimal supervision. High throughput labs have reliably achieved a 5-day TAT using the SPE-03, setting a new standard for PFAS turnaround performance.
Why automate PFAS extraction with the SPE-03?
✅ Increased Productivity – Parallel processing of up to 8 samples reduces prep time
✅ Efficient Complex Sample Handling – Compatible with anti-clogging technologies for tough matrices
✅ Reduced Manual Effort – Frees staff for other essential lab tasks
✅ Consistent and Accurate Results – Compliant with EPA Methods 533, 537.1, and 1633
✅ Easily Scalable – Compact and ready to start extracting on day 1 of unboxing
The SPE-03 is trusted by over 200 PFAS labs worldwide.
