Application fields CHNOS elemental analysis Agricultural analysis Water analysis Solid fuel analyzers Special elemental analyzers 6. The Products Micro CHNS/O Elemental Analyzer vario MICRO cube Completely new instrument for CHNS analysis, market introduction in 2006.Unique method for combustion gas separationbyT emperatureP rogrammedD esorption.TPD(patent pending),combines high performance ofpurge-and-trap with simplicity of GC. Complementary to the existing lineof instruments. 7. Temperature programmed desorption with single-column technology The „TPD“ technology is a very straight forward method to separate the gaseous compounds by complete adsorption and subsequent element specific desorption. It guarantees baseline separation of CHNS under all conditions. C,H,S N 8. The ProductsUniversal CHNS/O Elemental Analyzer vario EL cube Concept and performance of the 4th generation of the most successful CHNOS elemental analyzers sets again the standards for this class of instruments.Less than 1 mg pharmaceuticalscan be analyzed just as precise aslarger amounts of soil samples.Micro to semi-macro sample size CHNS+O+Cl Unrivalled versatility 9. The Products The art of elemental analysis vario MACRO cube CN Fast and safe alternative to Kjeldahl for N-Protein analysis CHN Applications for fossil fuels, incineration plants and environmental analysis. CNS Soil, plant, environmental or industrialsamples. CHNS The first CHNS macro analyzer!Applications for all kinds of sampleswith inhomogeneities or low element concentrations. 10. Purge and Trap with multi-column chromatography In the vario EL cube and vario MACRO cube a multi-column technology is realized to separate even larger sample sizes. The gaseous compounds are adsorbed at element specific columns and one after the other released by a temperature supported desorption. All elements are analyzed simultaneously from a single sample. H S C N 11. The Products Macro elemental analyzers with reusable sample crucibles vario MAX N/CN may be operated in carbon/nitrogen mode or the faster N/protein mode acc. tothe Dumas combustion method. CNS analyzer applications include plants,soil or industrial products.CHN addresses the needs of carbon,hydrogen and nitrogen analysisin fossil fuels and incineration plants. 12. The Products The compact power in N-protein analysis rapid N cube Nitrogen/protein analyzer according to Dumas for routine analysis of samples such as food or animal feed up to 1 g sample weight.The rapid N cube is a fast, safe andenvironmentally friendly alternativeto the classical Kjeldahl method.The rapid N cube is a particularlyreliable and durable instrument. 13. rapid N cube The rapid N cube – the most economic way to determine N/protein by the DUMAS method – the most efficient alternative to Kjeldahl. Protein is calculated by multiplying the total nitrogen amount with a factor f. This factor varies between 5.35 – 6.35. 14. The Products TOC + TNb analyzers vario TOC cube Most modern high temperature TOC/TNb analyzer (2008) based on the "cube" platform. Largest concentration range from5 ppb to 60,000 ppm TOC in liquidsor 0-50 mg C (or 100%) in solids. Unique concept for integrated liquid sampling of up to 80 samples or solids up to 120 sample positions. Innovative matrix separation for the analysis of very difficult samples such as brine, sludges or suspensions. 15. The Products Special elemental analyzers rapid CS cube Sulfur/Carbon analyzer Total sulfur/carbon analyzer for fast andprecise analysis in coal and otherorganic and most inorganic substances. Based on the "cube" technology with state of the art micro electronics andmechanics introduced in 2008. Unmatched performance from ppm to100% with just one high performanceNDIR detector. Lowest cost per analysis and very long operation timebased on high temperature catalytic combustion in a quartz glass tube. 16. trace SN cube High-end for petrochemical applications Double furnace system for uncompromised performance in SN mode Detection range from ppb to %Suitable for gaseous, liquid and solid samples 17. The Products Isotope ratio analysis In 2008 Elementar acquired the product line Gas-IRMS from Thermo/GVI. Isoprime Ltd., a 100% daughter company of Elementar, manufactures the comprehensive line of products for the analysis of stable isotope ratios of C, N, S, H and O in all kind of samples in geochemistry, agriculture, food authenticity, environmental control, etc. 18. How to select within the vario family:Micro or Macro Analyzer Main distinguishing feature is the amount of organically bound carbon to be analyzed in one sample. Absolute carbon detection range: 0 –7 mg vario MICRO cube 0 –40 mg vario EL cube 0 – 100 (150) mg vario MACRO cube0 – 200 (400) mg vario MAX 19. How to select within the vario family II Sample handling and injection (2) Samples (liquids or solids) are filled in an open and reusable crucible(steel or ceramic) and moved by a robot arm into the combustion zone. After combustion the crucible withthe remaining ash (minerals)is automatically removed. Analyzer: vario MAX 20. How to select within the vario family III Sample handling and injection (3) Samples (liquids or gases) are injected directly into the combustionzone by means of an automatic or manual syringe. Analyzers: vario EL cube with VLS trace SN 21. The cube family of elemental analyzers –how to decide ? .....the easiest way: TAKE THEM ALL! 22. Elementar thanks for your attention!
