In this product brochure, Milestone details its array of equipment designed to assist in sample preparation for elemental analysis. The critical nature of sample preparation for ensuring dependable and precise data in elemental analysis is emphasized, with a particular focus on the central role of acid digestion. The brochure underscores the significance of supplementary steps to improve overall quality, workflow, and laboratory efficiency. Milestone presents sample preparation tools designed for safety, high throughput, optimal performance, and user-friendly operation.

ETHOS UP high-performance microwave digestion system

Milestone

The new ETHOS™ UP is simply the most advanced yet easy to use system for microwave sample preparation we have ever manufactured. It offers a perfect integration between microwave hardware, user interface, digestion sensors and pressure vessels.  Microwave digestion oven ETHOS UP covers the whole range of samples from routine to high-end applications including US EPA method 3052 for sediments, soils and US EPA method.

duoPUR Acid Distillation System

Milestone

duoPUR and subPUR, sub-boiling distillation systems allow laboratories to make their own high purity acids at dramatically reduced costs. Offering an optimal purification method, this type of acid distillation uses contactless infrared lamps to vaporize the surface liquid at a temperature typically 20°C below the boiling point. The duoPUR allows the purification of the most common acids such as HNO3 and HCl.
