Automatic inline dilution of the sample takes place at an external position of the 858 Professional Sample Processor. The 800 Dosino carries out the high-precision liquid handling steps by means of a tranfer tubing.
The MagIC Net™ software controls the dilution steps and provides for all calculations; only the dilution factor needs to be entered in the sample table. In addition, the software provides for intelligent dilution, i.e. dilution takes place automatically depending on the predefined concentration limits. The software monitors all intelligent system components from the iColumn to the iDetector.
The Metrohm inline ultrafiltration included in «ProfIC 6» reliably removes particles from the sample and in this way effectively protects the analytical column increasing its lifetime 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 anion system is equipped with sequential suppression. Very high sensitivity is achieved by this unique combination of chemical and downstream CO2 suppression. The flexibility of the carbonate eluent is complemented by the low background conductivity of a hydroxide eluent.
The 858 Professional Sample Processor with Pump carries out the sample transfer. Numerous sample racks for volumes 0.5...500 mL are available.
