• Simultaneously multiple extract handling

Parameters

San^series

The San^series analyzer provides the most proven and reliable technology available today for routine analysis of nutrients and minerals in soils, plants and fertilizers.

The analyzers have a flexible modern design and can be configured to meet the needs of any laboratory.

The NPK analyzer is used worldwide during either fertilizer production and labeling of the NPK grade or for soil and plant analysis to optimize fertilizer dosage, controlling the yield and minimizing the environmental pollution.

Furthermore, the NP analyzer is able to analyze Nitrogen and Phosphorus simultaneously. Nitrogen can be analyzed as Ammoniacal Nitrogen after extration or as Total Nitrogen after Kjeldahl digestion. Phosphorus can be analyzed after extraction according to Bray, Olsen or other procedures and as Total Phosphorus after wet digestion.

Features of the San^series analyzer

• Suitable for each sample extract and digest
• Unattended overnight operation for extended analysis capacity in peak seasons
• Results are expressed in the concentration unit required such as ppm, milliequivalents, g / kg
• Simultaneously multiple extract handling

Formacs^SERIES

The Formacs^series TOC / TN analyzers provide fast analysis of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) and Total Nitrogen (TN) in liquid samples using high temperature catalytic combustion.

The level of TOC is often used as an indicator of water quality during for instance the drinking water purification process and indicating the water quality of rivers, streams and lakes. TN levels are an important parameter for seawater, waste water treatment and industrial process control. 

Direct injection analysis

The Formacs^HT-I TOC / TN analyzer analyzes liquid samples by direct sample injection in a high temperature catalytic combustion furnace. These analyzers are especially designed for particulate laden samples (suspensions).  

Analysis of aqueous and solid samples 

The Primacs^MCS analyzer operates in combination the with Formacs^HT, which offers an economical solution to laboratories analyzing TOC in aqueous samples as well as solid samples. Based on a dual oven design, the analyzer is capable of performing rapid and reliable separate determinations of TC, IC and TOC, and has been developed especially for solid materials including sludges and sediments.
