Success Story: at CARSO
The Partner: CARSO
CARSO is a major player in analytical services, renowned for its extensive environmental and water quality testing capabilities. Handling a massive volume of daily samples requires highly efficient, compliant, and reliable analytical technologies to maintain their exceptional service standards.
The Challenge: Fast and Compliant Routine Analysis
To meet strict regulatory requirements and manage a continuous sample influx, the laboratory needed a robust automated solution capable of performing chemical analysis in strict accordance with the NF EN ISO 1484 standard (Water quality — Guidelines for the determination of total organic carbon and dissolved organic carbon). Maximizing sample throughput without compromising analytical precision was a top priority.
The Solution: Skalar SAN++ Continuous Flow Analyzer
CARSO recently upgraded their laboratory workflow by installing the Skalar SAN++ Continuous Flow Analyzer, configured specifically to automate the NF EN ISO 1484 chemical method.
Since the installation, the SAN++ system has delivered outstanding operational efficiency:
High Throughput: The system smoothly processes 12 samples per hour.
Rapid Turnaround: The laboratory now receives a highly accurate, standard-compliant result every 5 minutes.
This true walk-away automation allows the CARSO team to significantly reduce manual handling times and streamline their daily analytical reporting.
A Collaborative Success
A successful installation is always a team effort. Skalar would like to extend a special thank you to the dedicated team at CARSO for their excellent collaboration and trust in our solutions. Special recognition goes to Emilie Avril (Technical Lab Manager), as well as Lilou Lambert and Latifa Sriouna (Lab Technicians), for their expertise and support during the setup and training phases. We are proud to support your laboratory's continued success!
