Performance

With analysis speeds up to 120 samples per hour and detection limits down to ppb levels flow injection analysis performs well compared with other techniques. Special design features of the FIA 2000 produce fast high quality analysis.

Sampling options

FIA 2000 offers you fully automatic sampling with a choice of carousel or XYZ sample changer. Automatic dilution of over-range samples is available as an option on the XYZ. However to alleviate the need for dilution the MicroStream data-processor has an extended concentration range enabling the results to be printed out at up to 10 times the normal calibration standard. When the instrument is not used with a sample changer a low-cost manual injection timer is available to ensure precise loop filling. In addition, each valve has a manual injection button as standard to assist you with setting up of the individual chemistries.

The manifold system

Standard components are used to construct the plug-in chemistry manifolds. Ready assembled units are available for the most commonly used methods. Where possible a single manifold can mount two related chemistries. Pump tube and valve connections are conveniently positioned and colour coded for identification. It takes only minutes to make a change of method.

Detectors

The in-built standard high sensitivity colorimetric and UV detectors use filter technology and flow through cells with a range of path lengths from 3-50mm. Free standing alternative detectors for Chemiluminescence, Fluorescence, and Ion Selective Electrode, interface with the chemistry manifold using the appropriate couplings. A range of flow cells are available for ISE measurements. The electrode should be specified when ordering.

Data capture and processing

FIA 2000 comes with MicroStream, a powerful multi-tasking system based on Windows™ software. MicroStream will speed up your calculating and reporting. Starting with a low-cost package for single-channel use, this system can be expanded to run up to four independent multi-channel analysers. Quality control software checks the accuracy of analysis and all results can be downloaded to other software packages and LIMS. MicroStream is compatible with Windows™ based networks.

Total Automation

All Burkard analysers can be fitted with the computer controlled automatic start-up and shut-down. A motorised wash/reagent changeover system ensures that all reagent lines are automatically connected to a water-wash on completion of analysis. The computer returns the valve to reagents for restart. Other computer control options are possible, e.g. reagent level sensing, special functions and interfacing to other instruments.

Standard chemistry methods

Data sheets are available and supplied with every method. Full information on the make-up of standards, preparation of individual chemicals and wash materials, sampler settings, optical filters and manifold connections is included. Method development is available for specific applications.

Servicing

The design of SERIES 2000 analysers mean that your servicing routine is minimal. Only the regular change of pump tubes by the user is required for routine operation. Annual and bi-annual service contracts will keep your instrument professionally maintained.
