Excellent system components guarantee very high sensitivity and reproducible results. Particular attention has been given to long service intervals; these can be monitored by the intelligent MagIC Net™ software.
«ProfIC 2» is equipped with Metrohm inline ultrafiltration, which reliably removes particles from the sample and in this way effectively protects the analytical column against particulate contamination. The lifetime of the column is increased significantly. The ultrafiltration cell is equipped with a membrane filter with a pore size of 0.2 µm as standard and is suitable for samples with a light to medium particle load. Inline ultrafiltration works fully automatically and in this way, for example, saves the time-consuming and expensive use of syringe filters.
The ultrafiltration cell is mounted directly on the 858 Professional Sample Processor. The bidirectional dual-channel peristaltic pump provides for sample transfer through the ultrafiltration cell and to the Professional IC system. The sample is continuously delivered at a high flow rate. This delays the formation of a filter cake and increases the working life of the membrane. Cross contamination is kept below 0.1%.
Numerous sample racks for volumes 0.5...500 mL are available for the 858 Professional Sample Processor. Ultrafiltration requires at least 5 mL of the sample.
«ProfIC 2» features intelligent system components such as the iPump and the iDetector and provides space for a total of three iColumns.
The anion system is additionally equipped with sequential suppression. This unique combination of chemical and downstream CO2 suppression results in very low detection limits. The flexibility of the carbonate eluent is complemented by the low background conductivity of a hydroxide eluent.
The «ProfIC 2» system is your reliable partner, both in routine operation and in research and development.
