A decomposition and digestion instrument has been specifically developed for the decomposition of water and soil samples for the determination of cyanide

A decomposition and digestion instrument which has been specifically developed for the decomposition of water and soil samples for the determination of cyanide has been introduced by Gerhardt The Cyanator, which can also be used for otherdeterminations, enables up to four samples to be digested simultaneously and thanks to its IR heating system, provides fast and uniform heating of samples

There are two models in the range.

Turbotherm Automatic is equipped with automatic control, allowing up to nine different programs to be defined, with each program having up to nine variable heating levels.

The current status of the instrument is permanently displayed with manual override possible at any time.

Also, the heating can be individually adjusted to the samples.

Turbotherm Manual is the other option, where power is set and adjusted via the energy controller.

The Cyanator is easy-to-use and operate, has a two-tier console for condensers and a gas flow counter located at the side, while a Steckmatic connection enables easy handling of compressed air inlet tubings.

Four sample tubes can be handled easily and simultaneously by using the insert rack.

Other features include the facility to connect the instrument to existing in-house compressed air and the use of nitrogen tubing to ensure an economic and safe flow of gas.

The use of inert materials is also possible.

The instrument can be used for a range of cyanide determinations including volatile cyanide, sulphide and sulphuric dioxide.
