Elemental Microanalysis News

Elemental Microanalysis is pleased to announce that our in-house R&D team has developed platinum catalysts which are suitable for use in Shimadzu TOC–L and TOC–V analysers. These catalysts are intended as a direct replacement for the standard platinum catalysts that Shimadzu offers. 
 

The catalysts from Elemental use a zirconia support, rather than alumina, hence there is a colour and weight difference when compared to the OEM catalysts. Our zirconia versions offer the following advantages over the OEM catalyst:

• lower blank values, leading to lower practical limit of quantification
• stabilises more quickly - allows faster conditioning of catalyst when installing a new reaction tube
• longer lifetime - allows greater number of sample runs before replacement
• more robust, - less prone to physical degradation

Available Elemental TOC catalysts include:

Elemental Microanalysis offers a large range of consumables for the Shimadzu TOC–L/V series analysers, including combustion tubes, reagents, halogen scrubbers, platinum gauze, O-rings, and various other operational accessories.

These products offer the same high quality and value for money that is typical of Elemental Microanalysis’ entire product range.
