The new Elemental Analyser multi EA® 5000

LPG and gas Analyses made safe and easy

The multi EA® 5000 represents a new generation of elemental analysers. It is versatile, reliable, easy to operate and capable of so much more than just elemental analysis. C, N, S and Cl from solid, liquid, paste-like and gaseous samples are only a small part of what it can do. TOC, EOX and AOX/TOX analyses are further areas of analysis easily covered by the multi EA® 5000. This makes it a universal talent to be used in various fields such as petrochemistry, environmental analysis, pharmacy, the chemical industry and materials testing.

Winning features at a glance:
• Application diversity, analyses solid, paste, fluid, gaseous and LPG samples
• Multi-element, determination of C, N, S and Cl in a single analysis cycle
• Multi-matrix sampler, for fully automated determination of solid and liquid samples in vertical or horizontal furnace configuration
• Double furnace technology, optimal adaptation to the sample matrix – vertical and horizontal mode in a single instrument
• Extended measuring range with low maintenance, ultra-modern detectors, all the way from ppb to percentage
• Modular design, freedom to select and extend your analysis system configuration
• Self Check System (SCS) for trouble-free operation
• Flame sensor technology for matrix-optimised sample digestion

The multi EA 5000 operates at full power, even under pressure: The automated analysis of gaseous matrices such as natural gas or calibration gas mixtures as well as liquefied pressurised gases (LPG) is performed using a revolutionary dosing technique which is extremely precise and sensitive.
The freedom to select any dosing volume at all not only allows the duration of the analysis process to be reduced but also allows a wide concentration range to be calibrated with only one gas standard.

Highly-Sensitive Gas Analyses

Special modules for analyzing gaseous and LPG samples are available. These are optimised for the tasks in question. They combine extremely high ease of operation and ultra-modern gas handling technologies with maximum safety for the user.

• Simple and safe connection technology for sample containers
• Fully-automatic module control
• Automatic rinsing steps to clean the dosing system
• Perma-purge technology eliminates memory effects
• Uniquely high, variable dosing volume of up to 100 ml
• Gas analyses of unrivalled sensitivity in the trace range

LPG Analyses, even at low Sample Pressure – LPG Module

The LPG module, which is fitted with a special dosing valve featuring a Peltier cooling system, is used for the dosing of liquefied gases. This allows too early expansion of the sample and the  associated formation of bubbles to be prevented effectively. Extremely accurate, correct readings are now standard in daily work.  A further advantage is the clear reduction in the required initial pressure of the sample in comparison with conventional LPG systems. No longer it is necessary to apply auxiliary gas to increase the pressure in the sample container. This makes it possible to work efficiently and provides protection against contamination. The liquefied gas is evaporated in a heated chamber after the sample has been taken. This guarantees  that even low volatile components enter a gaseous state completely. Memory effects no longer occur. The transfer of the sample into the combustion system is also supported by a permanent flow of purge gas known as perma-purge.

• Simple and safe connection technology for sample containers
• Meets very high safety standards
• No auxiliary gases required to raise the pressure, reduces operating costs
• Peltier cooling to ensure extremely accurate dosing
• Uniquely high, variable dosing volume of up to 50 μl
• Heated evaporation chamber for quantitative sample evaporation
• Perma-purge technology eliminates memory effects
• LPG analyses of unrivalled sensitivity in the trace range

The multi EA® 5000 – the highest precision, fastest and safest, yet still most convenient analyser.
