Dedicated Analyzer: Mercury Spectrometer ( Atom. ): AAS: Furnace |
Hydra-C is designed to address the needs of analysts that want to use EPA’s new method 7473 or that simply want to determine mercury without prior sample digestion. Hydra-C is a fully automated mercury analyzer that permits the direct analysis of solid or liquid samples without the need for acid digestion. The Hydra-C is a highly refined instrument which incorporates numerous features that make its operation significantly more user friendly and sensitive than was available with earlier generation instruments. Some of Hydra-C’s features include: - High Sensitivity – from Hydra’s 25 cm long optical path.
- Extended Dynamic Range – with “Selectivity Select”.
- Simplified Sample Loading – the self-registering autosampler allows unrestricted rotation during sample loading. The optional on-line balance enables direct sample weight entry.
- Automated Scheduled Maintenance – tracks system usage and instructs the operator when maintenance is recommended.
- Ergonomic Design – provides easy access to decomposition and catalyst furnaces for ease-of-use.
- Versatile Software – Microsoft Windows’ XP programming with navigation panel makes system operation a snap.
- 21CFR 11 Compliant Software – provides password protected access control electronic signatures, audit trail and data integrity.
- Compatible with Liquid Samples – Liquid as well as solids can be analyzed.
- Fast and Economical Service – The Hydra-C’s modular design allows easy exchange of furnace, spectrometer or autosampler modules.
- Reliable Sample Movement – Samples are moved with high precision, motor driven mechanisms which prevent the acceleration/deceleration related losses that can occur with gas driven mechanisms.
- Low Gas Consumption – Oxygen is used only as a carrier gas and not for pneumatic actuation.
