Sample preparation: Fusion

The C series is a full size machine similar to the M series, it is designed for high sample output. 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.
A recipe is selected from the database, the samples are then automatically pre heated then dissolved and mixed into a lithium borate flux at temperatures ranging from 300 to 1600 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
