Description
The vario ISOTOPE select is the entry-level EA dedicated to stable isotope analysis, combining reliable results with outstanding robustness. It utilizes Elementar’s proprietary Advanced Purge and Trap technology with a single Temperature Programmed Desorption (TPD) column. Thus, full baseline resolution during simultaneous CNS isotope ratio analysis is always guaranteed. In combination with one of our high performance IRMS systems, you will always get the best out of your analyses.
KEY FEATURES
- Outstanding robustness – low maintenance
- 10 year warranty on furnace and thermal conductivity detector cell
- Low total cost of ownership and highest data quality
- Reliable results even for submilligram samples
- Fractionation-free, patented TPD gas separation for high precision and accuracy
- Integrated 120 position autosampler as standard
- Patented ball valve forblank-free sample transfer
Less than 1 mg pharmaceuticals can be analyzed just as precise as 300 mg soil sample. Volatile gasoline or temperature-proof silicon carbide can be analyzed just like coal, foodstuff or sewage sludge – without restriction of the elements, simultaneously for CNS. The superior temperature-programmed desorption technique guarantees highly efficient peak separation, even for samples with extreme element concentration ranges.
Equipped with a 120 position autosampler for high sample throughput and the most user-friendly operating software on the market, the vario ISOTOPE select is setting new benchmarks. Unrivalled universality and analytic performance of the vario ISOTOPE select form the basis for its success in isotope ratio analysis.
Reliable results
The vario ISOTOPE select guarantees outstanding precision and accuracy through quantitative combustion via con-trolled oxygen jet-injection direct ly into the active zone. This leads to matrix-independent results even for samples which are difficult to combust. In combination with the state-of-the-art thermal conductivity detector, the instru-ment provides an elemental detection limit of < 100 ppm.
Operating comfort
The vario ISOTOPE select is optimized to significantly simplify daily routine operation. Clearly arranged, easily accessible system components as well as a furnace that slides out minimize maintenance efforts. The tool-free clamp connection system ensures a reliably leak-tight instrument at any time. Thus customers can enjoy smooth analyses and confidence in their result.
