Instrument separates and determines substances that absorb in the ultraviolet or visible range of the spectrum, opening up applications not directly amenable to ion chromatography
Metrohm has launched what it says is the world's first compact ion chromatography system with UV/vis detector.
The complete chromatography system in a minimal space - the 844 UV/vis compact IC separates and determines substances that absorb in the ultraviolet or visible range of the spectrum.
This opens up a large number of applications that are not directly amenable to ion chromatography with conductivity detection.
Here are some important application areas:.
Detection of heavy metals.
Chromium-containing effluents from tanneries.
Corrosion monitoring in power plants.
Determination of bromate in drinking water.
Determination of sulphur compounds in wastewater.
Determination of nitrite and nitrate in seawater.
The 844 combines all system components in one compact protective housing: injector, high-pressure pump with gradient capability, column heating, post-column reactor, reagent pump and the newly developed array UV/vis detector.
An ordinary PC suffices to control the complete system.
The IC Net software warrants easy and intuitive system operation.
Optimised data acquisition allows data processing while the chromatogram is still running.
The large range of Metrosep separation columns assures analytical success.
