856 Conductivity Module

Metrohm AG

The 856 Conductivity Module is the new conductivity meter from Metrohm. It measures with state-of-the-art conductivity measuring cells – five-ring measuring cells. They achieve high linearity without platinization of the cell and are maintenance-free. The five-ring cells also yield accurate measurement data irrespective of the immersion depth. Broad range of applications The 856 Conductivity Module is versatile and can be used: - to extend a Titrando with an additional measurement input for pH or ion measurement - as an integrated conductometer in conjunction with the software packages PC Control or tiamo™ (from version 2.0) - as a stand-alone conductometer together with the 840 Touch Control operating unit - as a fully automated conductometer combined with the 814 USB Sample Processor or 815 Robotic USB Sample Processor XL Thanks to the galvanically separated measuring input, pH and conductivity measurements can now be performed simultaneously in the same sample vessel. Regardless of the application – measurements always meet GLP and FDA requirements. For use with the latest conductivity measuring cell technology The 856 Conductivity Module’s new five-ring conductivity measuring cells provide a wide linear measuring range. In contrast to four-ring cells, the electrode can be fully immersed in the sample solution. In a stirred solution, this results in faster mixing within the measuring cell. Thanks to the removable cap, the conductivity measuring cells are very easy to clean. Plug-and-play functionality for numerous peripheral devices Two USB and four MSB ports make the 856 Conductivity Module incredibly flexible. Plug-and-play functionality means the user can connect a multitude of devices: - printers, sample changers, barcode readers, etc. - up to four stirrers and four 800 Dosinos

940 Professional IC Vario

Metrohm AG

With the 940 Professional IC Vario system, Metrohm sets a new standard in ion chromatography. 940 Professional IC Vario stands for maximum flexibility combined with most easy operation and perfect reliability. Entirely modular by design, the new 940 Professional IC Vario meets your particular requirements while keeping you perfectly flexible. Based on one and the same system, you can configure any IC system you want or need.All solutions – including standards – are produced fully automatically, if desired. Starting with sample injection, the system works completely autonomously. Moreover, it is self- monitoring: All system and method parameters are permanently checked; if any system component should require maintenance, the system tells you so – with a message in plain text.The 940 Professional IC Vario system provides superior reliability of both the system itself and the analytical results produced on it: Because the system is self-monitoring, operator errors are virtually ruled out. You can absolutely rely on your measuring results. Moreover, all results can be traced back to every single step of the analysis and even sample preparation. Thus, even the strictest audits are no reason to worry any more.940 Professional IC Vario Features: Modular high-performance ion chromatography system. Unlimited possibilities for system configuration. Compact dimensions, small footprint. For routine analyses and research applications in the ng/L- to %-range. Highest sensitivity for lowest detection limits. Intelligent system components for reliable results. Wide range of detection options: conductivity, UV/VIS, amperometry, ... Free choice of suppressor and column. All gradient options. Inline eluent preparation integrated in the system. Multi-language MagIC Net software for intuitive and simple operation. Complies with GLP and the FDA regulations. Compatible with the unique and partly patented Metrohm Inline Sample Preparation techniques (MISP). Complete automation for high sample throughput. Low maintenance costs and long lifetime. Rugged Swiss quality.

Sample PreparationSample preparation can improve the quality and speed of separation techniques. Products to assist sample preparation include filtration equipment, evaporators, membranes and sieves.pH Meters and ElectrodesIon and pH meters are electrochemical equipment used to measure the pH (acidity or alkalinity) or specific ion concentration of a solution. Other meters can also measure the conductivity or dissolved oxygen content of a solution. pH meters, specific ion meters, conductivity meters and dissolved oxygen meters can come as benchtop or portable equipment. A meter’s electrodes can be replaced with easy to clean electrodes or electrodes for difficult media. pH, ion and conductivity meters are typically used in life science research, pharmaceutical testing, food and beverage, environmental and water analysis. Find the best pH meters and electrodes in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Sample ManagementSample management systems include sample storage devices such as freezers and plate storers, sample environment enclosures and sample organization, retrieval and sorter systems. Useful system features include high-throughput, automation, robotic arms, automated liquid handling and associated database systems. Accessories in sample management include barcode scanners, heat sealers and tubes.Environmental Monitoring and TestingEnvironmental monitoring and testing uses handheld portable analyzers, kits, spectrometers or chromatography systems for air, water, soil, food and other sample testing. Useful features of analyzers such as BOD and COD include portability, easy calibration, automation and sensitivity.  Environmental test kits for pH, water, moisture, etc, should be accurate, sensitive, reliable, fast and easy to use.Robotic InstrumentsRobotic instruments can be used for high-throughput automation of many lab processes. Such processes use instruments for assays like cell based assays and ELISA, for sample preparation like shakers, centrifuges and incubators, and for analysis such as sequencing and western blot analyzers. Useful features of robotic instruments include speed, reproducibility, barcode readers, software and automation.Automated Liquid HandlingAutomated liquid handling equipment is used to mix, dilute and dispense allotted volumes of liquid into microplates and other vessels automatically.
