Automated chemistry analyser with programmable software

Water testing and agricultural analyses are two of the most productive areas of application for the ChemWell-T analyser/ rAPID-T software package – which provides a precise, durable and economical way of running colorimetric tests that may currently be run manually.

Water testing, including drinking water monitoring and wastewater treatment, uses many of the ion/nutrient analysis methods established by the US Environmental Protection Agency and Standard Methods.

Typical analysis rates are up to 50 – 90 samplers per hour, depending on testing requirements and the optional 50mm Liquid Waveguide Capillary Cell (LWCC) can result in a 5x to x10 detection improvement.

Agricultural labs will also benefit from the analyser’s ability to determine ions/nutrient levels in plants, feeds and soils in order to optimise crop yields.

Tests like Ammonia, Nitrate, Nitrite, Ortho-phosphate, TKN, and Total Phosphorus have analysis rates of 45 – 120 samples/hour with the built-in QA protocols in the FASPac.

Furthermore, the 10mm path length cuvettes, with working volume up to 500 µl, mean that the ChemWell-T is easy to load and unload.

As many as 40 reactions can be carried out, using eight strips of five cuvettes, without intervention.

A ‘pause’ function also allows for cuvettes to be added during a run. With reaction temperature from ambient to 40ºC, the multi-function probe delivers 2 µl to 450 µl and detects the liquid surface, retracting if it contacts an obstacle.
