Aqueous solution conductivity determined precisely
The new Model 3084 from Amber Science is a bench top, line powered, micro-processor based conductivity instrument designed to precisely determine the conductivity of aqueous solutions.
The generated data can be exported to file.
The ViAll software can also interface with an automation server application.
ViAll software can be integrated into ActiveX compatible software.
The ViAll reader and software allows the mixing of several brands (Micronic/Matrix/Abgene) and types of tubes in one rack.
The orientation of a rack is automatically detected and corrected, thus eliminating wrongly orientated racks.
This feature will reduce the number of human errors, thus enabling a higher throughput.
ViAll software is also available in combination with a ViAll scanner.
