UNICUBE® trace
Matrix independent determination of N and C at trace levels.
Low-level nitrogen and carbon determination in solids and highly viscous liquids
The specialty and outstanding feature of the UNICUBE trace is the combination of the highly sensitive thermal conductivity detection with the DUMAS method which involves the removal of interfering gases during reduction. This results in a matrix independent detection with very high sensitivity tailored for trace analysis of nitrogen and carbon.
Some of the analysis features of the UNICUBE trace are:
- Sample digestion via catalytic combustion at 950 °C
- Reduction of the combustion products on a reduction tube
- Removal of unwanted combustion products like H2O and SO2
- Measurement of CO2 and N2 by thermal conductivity
The UNICUBE trace is designed for:
- Easy, low-maintenance operation
- Simple maintenance
- Stable and reliable performance (10 year warranty for furnace & detector)
