Effective immediately, PerfectLight launches the “2026 μGAS1001 Cross-Generation Upgrade Special Subsidy Program.”
For all research groups currently using Labsolar-6A/IIIAG (and similar photocatalytic equipment), PerfectLight provides a special cross-generation upgrade subsidy:
Your existing equipment will serve as the qualification basis (old devices of any brand are eligible—non-PerfectLight equipment can also apply for the subsidy), helping you upgrade to the new-generation μGAS1001.
μGAS1001 delivers 3× higher gas-tightness than the 6A (oxygen leakage rate of 0.09 μmol/h). The new system adopts a high-speed magnetically controlled internal circulation, significantly improving mixing efficiency and injection repeatability.
This subsidy program follows a “zero-downtime” delivery model: install the new system first, then remove the old one—ensuring your experiments never stop.
Only 50 units available in the first batch, applications open today.
From IIIAG to 6A, these classic systems have accompanied many laboratories for more than a decade, supporting numerous master’s and doctoral research projects and scientific publications. They witnessed the golden era of photocatalysis in China—from its early exploration to rapid development. Many research groups finalized their first SCI paper based on the data generated from these systems.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of PerfectLight. At this milestone, we would like to transform this long-standing trust into more practical support: allowing these mission-completed legacy systems (regardless of brand) to become a special subsidy fund supporting your laboratory’s next-generation upgrade.
As research in fields such as overall water splitting and CO₂ reduction demands increasingly precise experimental data, the performance limitations of aging laboratory equipment have become a core obstacle to high-level scientific output.
Researchers are currently facing multiple challenges: on the one hand, older equipment often has high leakage rates and large data dispersion, making it difficult to meet reviewers’ strict expectations regarding data quality, system reliability, and accuracy; on the other hand, productivity comparisons among research groups still lack widely recognized and standardized evaluation tools and methods.
In response to these challenges, many leading research groups have called for more accurate evaluation and reliable comparison of such scientific instruments. At the same time, the research community urgently needs a widely recognized system and testing methodology to guide technological upgrades—which is precisely the core motivation behind the cross-generation redesign of μGAS1001.
The new-generation μGAS1001 Micro Gas Reaction Evaluation System is not a minor upgrade—it represents a complete cross-generation reconstruction from underlying architecture to core components:
1. Gas-tightness improved by 3×
The factory-controlled oxygen leakage rate of μGAS1001 reaches 0.09 μmol/h, representing a threefold improvement compared with Labsolar-6A.
In photocatalytic overall water splitting or CO₂ reduction research, oxygen production is often extremely low. High leakage rates may directly mask the real activity signal of catalysts. The 0.09 μmol/h @O₂-level gas-tightness of μGAS1001 means users can detect materials that might previously have gone unnoticed due to poor initial performance. Such materials may possess unprecedented innovation in type, properties, or mechanism, potentially leading to high-impact publications. Many of them could be significantly improved—but were previously “misjudged” due to detection limitations.
The top-tier paper you missed may never have been due to a lack of a good idea.
2. High-Speed Magnetically Controlled Internal Circulation: Solving the Two Classic Problems of “Mixing” and “Pulsation”
Similar systems on the market often face one of two problems: either extremely high flow resistance that makes gas mixing difficult (leading to large and random detection errors), or plunger pumps that generate instantaneous pressure pulses interfering with chromatographic injection repeatability (increasing RSD).
The μGAS1001 features an exclusive design combining a high-speed magnetically driven circulation pump, internal circulation pipeline, and highly reliable gas-tightness, achieving the optimal balance of “high flow rate, low resistance, and zero pulsation.” This ensures that gases within the system reach uniformity in a very short time while sampling does not disturb system equilibrium.
3. Lower Failure Rate, Easier Maintenance, Higher Consistency
• μGAS1001 adopts highly standardized integrated assembly and factory consistency calibration, minimizing individual differences between devices and providing a reliable benchmark for data comparison among laboratories.
• Multiple volume quantitative loops (the only design on the market) are randomly included to adapt to different gas production levels, enabling standard curves to accurately match real experimental conditions.
• By optimizing the pump and valve structure, the failure rate has been reduced to about 1/5 of that of the 6A. The patented automatic valve allows long-term maintenance-free operation, significantly lowering the learning curve for new students and reducing long-term maintenance costs.
To lower the barrier for upgrading, this program introduces a three-layer subsidy mechanism. The level of support is unprecedented in PerfectLight’s 20-year brand history:
• Layer 1: Value return for classic legacy equipment — whether you are using older PerfectLight systems or equipment from other brands, their value will be recognized and offered substantial trade-in credit;
• Layer 2: Frontier research innovation funding, strongly supporting scientific breakthroughs;
• Layer 3: PerfectLight 20th Anniversary Special Fund · A major appreciation for the academic community.
