The ASAP 2460 analyser is designed to achieve upgradeable high-performance and high sample throughput.
The surface characterisation instrument is configurable as a two-, four-, or six- station bench top system to meet users’ needs.
The base ASAP 2460 is a two-port master control unit. For additional throughput, two-port auxiliary units can be connected to the master unit expanding the system to either a four-port or six-port analyser.
All analysis ports can be operated independently and concurrently, allowing the user to load and unload samples at any time, regardless of the preparation or analysis stage.
Long-duration dewars and isothermal jackets assure a stable thermal profile along the length of both the sample and the saturation pressure (Po) tubes throughout extended analyses.
An analysis of up to 60 hours can be performed without refilling the dewar. This allows unattended analysis of high-resolution.
Additonally, the company’s MicroActive software is capable of combining user-defined reports with the ability to interactively evaluate isotherm data, which can reduce the time required to obtain surface area and porosity results.
MicroActive data analysis software also includes a utility that allows overlays of mercury porosimetry pore size distribution with a pore size distribution calculated from gas adsorption isotherms.
