The TOC (total organic carbon) content is an important parameter to characterize materials like soil, rocks or cement. It can be determined by controlled combustion at a fixed temperature, by application of a temperature ramp or by adding acid. ELTRA offers high-performance combustion analyzers for all these methods.
The CW-800 and CW-800M are suitable for the determination of both TOC and TIC (total inorganic carbon) content in one sample by application of different carrier gases and temperatures. The CW-800M is used for applications with temperature ramps.
Due to their robust construction the combustion analyzers CS-d, CS-i, CS-r and CS-580A are suitable for measuring acidulated samples. They operate with gold cuvettes which replace the costly halogen traps. The use of sample loaders facilitates the handling of larger sample series.
