5E-HGT2321

Direct Total Mercury Analyzer

 5E-HGT2321 Direct Total Mercury Analyzer

5E-HGT2321 Direct Total Mercury Analyzer is able to directly measure the total
mercury in solid, liquid and gas samples without the need of complex sample
pretreatment, effectively avoiding the loss of mercury in the pretreatment
process, cross contamination and experimental environmental pollution, and
ensuring the accuracy of the analysis data.

Compared with the traditional chemical vapor generation- atomic fluorescence

spectrometry method, the pyrolysis method is more efficient, accurate, stable
and reliable in measuring mercury, which can greatly reduce labor intensity, and
save 70% of analysis time and cost.

Working Principle

Sample is dried by heating and burnt (pyrolysis) in oxygen or air. Its decomposed
product is oxidized by the high temperature catalyst carried via oxygen.
Meanwhile, distractors like halogen, nitric oxides, and sulfur oxides are absorbed
by catalyst. Moisture is exhausted by pneumatic truncation, and the rest of
decomposed product is conveyed to sub-nanometer Hg-trap further. Mercury
atoms are selectively captured, and finally experience secondary atomization by
heating Hg-trap. The flowing oxygen carries mercury atoms into the cold atomic
absorption detector (253.7nm) for determination, and the total mercury content
in the sample is directly calculated by the software.

Critical Design
Replaceable Sample Feeder
• Carousel sample feeder, available for 45 samples per batch.
Cyclic addition ensures unattened operation.
• Sample can be weighed and placed on the spare sample tray,
which can be directly replaced after the former one has been
tested.

Reduce Weighing Error

• The balance can be placed next to the instrument and
computer to directly weigh the sample, effectively reducing
the transfer time.
• Press balance Print key to input sample weight to the
software, greatly avoiding errors in sample weighing.

Intergrated Catalytic-Amalgamation Tube

• Unique intergrated tube can effectively improve the reliability
of connection in high temperature of catalytic-amalgamation
tube and avoid mercury residue at the connection.
• Greatly eliminate the moisture condensation generated by
combustion and improve the analysis speed.

Double Screen Display & Control

• Equipped with a removable micro-display screen and can be
controlled by PAD in addition to computer.
• Adopt wireless connection for micro screen to facilitate
monitoring the testing process and results.
