The multi EA 5000 elemental analyser from Analytik Jena UK provides a comprehensive analytical capability.
It covers the elemental analysis of carbon, sulphur, nitrogen and chlorine through to TOC, EOX and AOX/TOX analyses from percentage levels down to parts per billion.
The automatic analysis of sulphur, nitrogen, carbon and chlorine is possible in a single analysis cycle.
In addition, this versatile analyser can accommodate solid, fluid, paste-like and gaseous samples, allowing it to be used in petrochemistry, environmental analysis, pharmaceuticals, the chemical industry and materials analysis.
Key to the flexibility of the EA 5000 is the double furnace arrangement, which can readily be switched between horizontal and vertical operation and which features a multi-purpose combustion tube for all standard applications.
The horizontal geometry is suitable for gases, liquefied pressurised gases (LPGs), solids, fluid samples, regardless of their viscosity, and very volatile liquids.
The horizontal arrangement is also best suited for high element concentrations.
The vertical configuration is suitable for gases, LPGs and liquid samples with normal viscosities.
In addition, it is optimal for N, S and Cl traces and ultra-trace analysis.
A multi-matrix sampler for both vertical and horizontal applications saves valuable analysis time by eliminating complex conversions, time-consuming connections or adjustment of an additional sampler.
Flame sensor technology ensures matrix-optimised quantitative combustion.
Even unknown samples can be analysed precisely, reliably and without soot formation.
Several times each second, an integrated self-check system verifies key operating parameters such as gas flow, temperature, pressure, system tightness, detector status, baseline stability, signal drift and flame sensor value to ensure that system performance is maintained.
The Multiwin control software facilitates operation.
It features a library of common standard methods for routine analysis.
A range of methods that have been developed for special applications are also available on request and users can develop and store their own customised methods.
The software monitors and regulates all system parameters, notifies users of system configuration errors and detects the input of unsuitable parameters.
Results are presented in clear, individual analysis reports.
