Product news

HORIBA Scientific, global leader in elemental analysis systems and solutions, has just announced the EMIA-Pro & Expert, its newest Carbon/Sulfur analyzers.

The new EMIA-Pro and Expert Carbon/Sulfur Analyzers offer Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) measurement capabilities, optimizing its range from 1.6ppm – 6.0% for Carbon, and 2ppm – 1.0% for Sulfur. They are also equipped with a Unique CO Detector. They can be used for a wide variety of Inorganic materials such as steel, cokes, catalyst, non-ferrous alloy like aluminum and lithium-ion battery materials.

These new analyzers, equipped with new cleaning mechanism, also increase cleaning efficiency compared to that of conventional Carbon/Sulfur analyzers. This enables users to repeat their measurements up to 200 times, with less time spent for maintenance and cleaning.

Along with EMIA-Pro and Expert’s new cleaning feature, HORIBA has developed a new robust design with fewer components for more reliable use and less service requirements.

EMIA-Pro and Expert offer increased measurement efficiency, with measurement, display of results and cleaning now takes about 70 seconds. They are also equipped with a navigation system that recommends the most suitable conditions for samples, troubleshoots errors and alerts users to perform maintenance.

Atomic Absorption / Emission SpectroscopyAtomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and atomic emission spectroscopy (AES) — also called optical emission spectroscopy (OES) — are used to detect the elemental constituents in samples. Both techniques involve the atomization of a sample. Atomic absorption spectrometers may use a flame or furnace to create an atomic vapor of the sample before irradiation with spectral light. Optical emission spectrometers may use a flame, inductively coupled plasma (ICP), microwave plasma (MP) or spark arcs to atomize and excite the sample. At higher excitation energies, electrons can be emitted instead of photons, which can be useful for samples that can’t be atomized and for surface analysis. Explore electron spectroscopy equipment such as Auger spectrometers and photoelectron spectrometers for surface elemental analysis of samples.

Multiple tecchniques are available for determining particle size, shape and count including dynamic light scattering (DLS), laser diffraction, electrozone (Coulter technique), imaging particle analysis and single particle optical sensing. Determine the density of your material with a gas pycnometer or examine its surface area and porosity with gas adsorption analyzers and mercury porosimeters.

Common methods include ultrasonic, magnetic-particle, liquid penetrant, radiographic, remote visual inspection (RVI), and eddy-current testing. NDT is regularly used in forensic engineering, civil engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, systems engineering, aeronautical engineering, and medicine.Routine QuantitationSulfurBatteriesElemental AnalysisElemental analysis involves determining the elemental composition of a sample, often used in environmental, pharmaceutical, and material sciences.
