BY AUTOMATING inline pre-injection measurements of conductivity and pH, the Dionex AS-AP Sample Conductivity and pH Accessory from Thermo Fisher Scientific will save users substantial time and effort, as well as providing more consistent results than manual methods, the company says.
This new option for the Dionex AS-AP autosampler makes use of conditional statements from Chromeleon, Dionex’s chromatography software.
The pH Accessory confirms sample integrity in advance of an ion chromatography (IC) run, eliminating the wasted effort of running degraded samples and helping to prolong chromatography column life. In addition to taking pH and conductivity measurements, it automates calibration, sample injection, and the reporting of results.
