Equipment Options and Upgrades
Parts and accessories are located on the Micromeritics web page.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| B.E.T. | Includes delay line used to reduce the perturbation (disturbance) of the gas flow caused by injections of gas through the septum, a 10 mL syringe, additional needles for the syringe (pack of 3) and a plastic beaker for water at ambient temperature for B.E.T. analysis. (Requires purchase of the optional Dewar.) |
| CryoCooler |
Analyses can be started at sub-ambient temperatures. The CryoCooler can be used to speed throughput by ramping the furnace temperature rapidly to ambient after an analysis. CryoCooler II - For use with all AutoChem instruments. CryoCooler III - For use on the AutoChem III only. |
| Mass Spectrometer | Separates isotopes, molecules, and molecular fragments according to mass. Connects directly to a dedicated port for detection and identification of low concentrations of condensable and/or reactive gases. |
| Sorption Trap |
The Sorption Trap is used to trap water produced from Temperature Programmed Reduction (TPR) analyses or other temperature programmed experiments in which moisture needs to be removed from the flow path before reaching the detector. |
| Vapor Generator |
Allows an inert carrier gas, such as helium, to be bubbled through the liquid at up to 100 °C. The vapor then passes through a cooler condensation zone maintained at an accurate temperature to ensure a stable vapor pressure. The vapor then passes to the loop valve zone (Fill/Inject valve) for precise injections onto the sample. |
