FIAlab-2500 - For Classical Flow Injection Analysis
 

The FIAlab-2500 offers a complete automated flow injection analysis system, including FIAlab for Windows control software, and the UV/VIS (or VIS/NIR) spectrometer based detector. The low cost of the FIAlab-2500 makes this system appealing to academic teaching and research laboratories. The robust design and adaptability make it the best choice for commercial laboratories performing routine Agricultural and Environmental Assays such as Nitrate, Nitrite, Ammonia, Phosphate, Chloride, Iron, and Potassium.  Most of these methods are fully EPA approved.   Please inquire for information on specific assays not listed in the above link.

Benefits and Advantages:
1) no need to purchase separate expensive manifolds for each type of method. 2) wavelength selections are made through software, no additional filters or lamps are required when switching between methods.  3) monitoring multiple wavelengths (up to four) substantially extends the system's dynamic range. 4) further extend range by simultaneous use of a short and long path flowcell (optional configuration).  5) reference wavelengths are utilized for compensation of colored matrices and index of refraction affects.  6)  adjust sample loop size via. software using timed injections.  No need to physically change a sample loop when switching assays.  7) multiple channel systems can be separated and run as multiple single channel systems when desired. 8) automatic correction for response drift (for example, caused by degradation of the cadmium column during the course of a run).    9) available with 180, 270, and 360 sample capacity autosamplers. 10) the FIAlab-2500 is easy to learn, easy to run, and simple to maintain.

FIA Lab-On-Valve® Manifold



Dual Channel System Configured for Nitrate (left), and Ammonia.  Compare to the Dual Channel FIAlab-2600.

Multichannel FIAlab-2500 systems are used for processing simultaneous assays.   Up to four systems can be connected for multiple simultaneous analyte processing.   For instance, a dual channel system can simultaneously process Nitrate and Phosphate, or Nitrate and Chloride.  A three channel system can simultaneously process, e.g., Ammonia, Phosphate, and Nitrate. 


Optional FIAlab-2500 configurations
:

Long Path Flowcell for Ultra Low Level Assays.   The FIAlab-2500 can be configured to measure nitrite, nitrate, phosphate, ammonia, plus other analytes in the low parts per billion range using FIAlab's 50 cm long path flowcell. 

Fast FIA Manifold - A revolutionary new approach in Flow Injection Analysis - 10 seconds per sample can now be achieved for many assays.   

Customization including additional pump channels and/or valve ports, please inquire.
