Sample preparation: Fusion

The M series is a full size machine designed for high sample out put. The Phoenix uses a modular system of construction so that whether your analysis program calls for 60,000 or 1000 samples per annum there is a Phoenix model whose design has been optimised to do just that.
Operation. Samples are dissolved and mixed into a lithium borate flux at temperatures ranging from 800 to 1250 degrees Celsius. (Typical fusion temperature is 1050 degrees Celsius) This is done over oxygen-enriched flames using specially designed burners. The sample is automatically poured into pre-heated moulds. The moulds are then retracted over separate cooling jets for precise control of cooling
