PD-2012 Portable Rare Gas Dryer

By Quorum Technologies Ltd

The PD-2012 Portable Rare Gas Dryer is a standalone unit for drying argon or any rare gas: helium, neon, xenon and krypton, in laboratories or on-site in-line between your gas supply and instrument, e.g. Arc/Spark Optical Emission Spectrometers. It offers a compact, mobile and easy to use solution for removing moisture and carbon dioxide where the test is carried out. PD-2012 drying system contains a molecular sieve drier tube housed in a case with in-situ regeneration feature which makes this solution highly cost effective. Self-sealing plug-in gas connections ensure the user cannot leave the system open to air contamination when it is disconnected from its input gas. As simple as that! No purging or any system preparation required. Just connect PD-2012 with the input gas and downstream instrument at the point of use, you are up and running instantly.

MP-2000 Rare Gas Purifier

Key Features The MP-2000 will remove the impurities, i.e. oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide and moisture (often present in the range of 30-50vpm) in commercially available rare gases down to a concentration of less than 1 vpm in total. Easy to use self-sealing plug-in gas connections ensure the user cannot leave the purifier open to air contamination when the purifier is disconnected from its feed gas. Low maintenance requirement with a quick-change getter tube feature when needed (two years + lifetime for normal impurity levels). Dual thermocouple temperature control, with remote status indication and fault alarm system. Built in safeguards against any fluctuations in ambient temperature or surges in electrical supply, offering long term optimum performance and reliability. Optional pressure sensor interfaces with microcontroller to provide display of system pressure and furnace shut down if the gas supply fails. Details The MP-2000 Rare Gas Purifier is a stand alone unit for the purification of argon or any rare gas: helium, neon, xenon and krypton. It offers a compact system for delivery of purified gas directly to the point of use. Rare gases are commonly used to create an inert chemical environment for applications where prohibition of the formation of undesirable molecular species (e.g. oxides, carbides, etc.) in testing is critical, such as Arc/Spark Optical Emission Spectroscopy for metal analysis. These inert gases are very often stored in compressed or liquefied form in metal containers which are subject to contamination. Gas will then be dispensed through a regulator which is also subject to contamination over time. This can greatly affect the validity of test results especially where identification of trace elements is required in rigorous applications. Installing an MP-2000 Rare Gas Purifier in-line between your gas supply and instrument offers the reassurance of reducing total contaminant levels to 1 vpm or less. The purifier contains two reactive getter tubes and a molecular sieve drier tube housed in a cabinet for immediate use. Just plug into the local ac power supply, connect the gas and purge the lines, turn on the power and you are up and running.

GloQube Plus

Key Features - Short in-air cycle time - Second chamber for separating in-air and in-vapour processes - No cross-contamination between chambers due to post-process flush cycle - Automatic vapour delivery ensures reliable and reproducible results - Purge cycles reduce water vapour and oxygen concentrations, ensuring excellent yield of specifically orientated macromolecules - Adjustable slow vent time to minimize sample disturbance - Optional fast vent for rapid process times - Safe handling of reagent - Three level adjustable height sample stage ensures repeatable results The GloQube® Plus is a cost-effective, compact and easy to use glow discharge system, designed to fulfil the needs of laboratories with TEM. The primary application of the GloQube® Plus is to modify the surface of TEM grids in a way that it meets requirements for successful imaging of a variety of macromolecules. Integrated into one system, the two chambers enable the user maximum flexibility to choose which sample preparation technique they want to use: glow discharge in-air or in-chemical vapour, without downtime for cleaning or the risk of contamination and loss of samples.

K850

Key Features - Vertical chamber with top filling and bottom draining - Side viewing port – good visibility - Built-in adiabatic cooling and thermoelectric heating – accurate temperature control - Fine-control needle valve pressure let down – precise control of decompression avoids potential damage to specimens by uncontrolled pressure release - Built-in magnetic stirrer- enhanced solvent exchange - Pressure monitoring with safety cut-out for over pressure - Chamber: vertical, diameter 32mm, height 47mm with glass viewing port and safety shield The K850 combines versatility and ease of operation. Built-in thermo-electric heating and adiabatic cooling allow precise temperature control. The vertical pressure chamber (32 mm diameter x 47 mm) has a side viewing port, which gives a clear view of the liquid meniscus during filling. A magnetic stirrer ensures optimal mixing and exchange of process fluids.
