Waters ACQUITY UPLC Process Sample Manager (PSM) (REF 186015064) S/N K17PSM093N The ACQUITY UPLC Process Sample Manager (PSM) is a specialized module designed by Waters Corporation for online and at-line process analysis. It enables real-time monitoring of production processes by bridging the gap between a process stream and UPLC analysis Key Features Dual Sampling Modes : Capable of accepting manual vial-based samples (atline) or aspirating directly from a process slip-stream or vessel (online). Automated Dilution : Performs in-situ dilutions to reduce manual handling errors and ensure samples are within the detector's linear range. Integrated Barcode Reader : Automatically verifies sample IDs for complete tracking and traceability of results. Software Integration : Managed by Waters Empower Chromatography Data Software for data integrity and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance; can interface with LIMS, DCS, and SDMS. PAT/QbD Compatibility : Supports Process Analytical Technology (PAT) and Quality by Design (QbD) initiatives by providing real-time quantitative results for process adjustment.
