ECS 8024 is a specialized N and C Elemental Analyzer Model based on the Dumas combustion method. ECS 8024 is prepared and dedicated to the carbon and nitrogen determination in soils and similar samples. ECS 8024 is based on sample combustion and separation of gases with a chromatographic column.
The combustion products, i.e. CO2 and N2 are separated and quantified by a high resolution TCD detector.
ECS 8024 is composed by:
Dual furnace combustion system (for a better combustion and optimization of catalysts)
Safety quick fit system for reactors connection (easy and safe way to set the instrument)
Customized GC column
Detection system
Data acquisition and handling
ECS 80 SERIES Several configurations may be set for the determination of the target element. Instrument is already prepared for soil analysis and carbon and nitrogen determination. ECS 8024 could be also equipped with other tools for the upgrade of the instrument to the CHNS-O analyzer.
Consumables kit are prepared for obtaining the best analysis performances. Prepacked reactors and all chemicals and tools allow fast and user-friendly analyses. The versatility of ECS 8024 can be expressed also as:
