CHN analysis in less than five minutes
Instrument uses thermal conductivity detection to measure carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen, after combusting and reducing a sample, in a process said to be be more stable than gas chromatography
Exeter Analytical says its CE440 elemental analyser sets a new standard for high productivity and maximised confidence in CHN/O/S analysis results Determining the carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen and sulphur content of unknowns are one of the most basic and essential needs for any chemist

High accuracy determination of nitrogen content
Exeter Analytical has launched Linear Regression Plus - a unique software algorithm for its CE440 elemental analyser enabling high accuracy determination of the nitrogen content of combustible samples
With simultaneous CHN analysis in less than five minutes and oxygen and sulphur in only six minutes, the CE440 will accelerate sample analysis, says Exeter.
Designed to give accurate, reliable results, over the widest range of sample types presented for analysis the CE440 gives unmatched operating accuracy and precision.
The CE440 uses thermal conductivity detection to measure carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen, after combusting and reducing a sample.
Inherently more stable than gas chromatographic based systems, the CE440 delivers superior performance and sampling precision over a very wide range of elemental content, the company says.
Horizontal sample injection enables automatic removal of sample residue after each analysis, avoiding memory effects and gas flow problems.
Low gas and reagent consumption combined with higher reduction tube life allows the CE440 to deliver what are said to be the lowest operating costs of any CHN elemental analyser available.
The CE440 is a fully automated analyser.
Intuitive Windows-based operating software reduces human errors through incorporation of extensive automation, comprehensive customer help and diagnostic facilities.
Most parts on the CE440 are user replaceable, further reducing operating costs and downtime.
