- Sequential analysis of cations and anions in one sample
- Capability to measure transition metals or lanthanides (Rare Earth Elements)
- Small sample volume
- High sensitivity to tens of ppb

- Measures non-purgeable organic carbon and total nitrogen simultaneously
- Dissolved inorganic carbon analysis
- Sensitivity to ~4 ug/L C or N

- Highly sensitive fluorescence detector can detect four wavelengths simultaneously
- Autosampler is temperature controlled and capable of complex pre-column derivitization
reactions
- Amino acid analysis and other fluorescent analytes

- Two inline detectors variable wavelength and refractive index
- Typical analyses include organic acids, sugars and alcohols
- Modular to accommodate other columns or mobile phases
- Quaternary pump for gradient methods

- Electrochemical detector
- AERS suppressor for low background
- AS22 analytical column for separation on anions
- 50 place autosampler
- Detection limits from <1 mg/L to ~100 mg/L for common anions

- Non-purgeable Organic Carbon (NPOC) measurements for Total Organic Carbon
- Dissolved Inorganic Carbon (DIC)
- IR detector of CO2 at 0.1 – 5000 mg C/l range of detection
- 100 place autosampler

- Dual detectors inline- Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD) and Flame Ionization Detector
