Elementar introduces the most universal and easy-going instrument for combustion elemental analysis of CHNS + O and Cl at analytica 2018.
UNICUBE is suited for multiple tasks such as the determination of CHNS with the additional option of detecting oxygen and chlorine. It has a large dynamic measurement range from 0.1 mg chemical substance to 1 g inhomogeneous soil. This novel elemental analyzer is based on high-temperature combustion via oxygen jet-injection directly into the combustion zone which guarantees quantitative conversion of the sample to measuring gas and enables matrix-independent results. For highest reliability and performance in gas separation, UNICUBE utilizes Elementar’s proprietary and improved direct Temperature Programmed Desorption technology. This technology paired with a state-of-the-art thermoconductivity detector allows determining samples with C:N and C:S elemental ratios of up to 12000:1.
UNICUBE is a low maintenance, tool-free, and especially low noise level instrument – optimized to simplify daily routine operation. The novel self-regulating cooling air circulation makes UNICUBE to the quietest elemental analyzer in its class. In addition, it is equipped with a 120 position autosampler, enabling an unattended 24/7 operation.
