Portable ion chromatography

Introduction

A portable ion chromatography system is a compact analytical instrument used to separate and quantify the ions in a sample, such as the anions and the cations in water, and it is used in environmental monitoring, water quality testing, food analysis, and many other applications, and it is designed for use in the field and at the point of sampling. The ion chromatography system separates the ions by passing the sample through a chromatographic column with an ion-exchange stationary phase, and the separated ions are detected by a conductivity detector or another detector, and the concentration of each ion is determined from the peak areas, and it is used for the analysis of the common anions, such as chloride, nitrate, sulfate, fluoride, and phosphate, and the cations, such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium; the portable ion chromatography system is compact and battery-operated, designed for field use, with features such as an integrated autosampler or a manual injection, a small footprint, and a rugged construction, and it provides the analysis of the ions in water and other samples at the point of use, with rapid results, and it is used with the calibration standards; the portable ion chromatography system is used for the monitoring of the water quality in the field, for the assessment of the contamination, for the analysis of the drinking water and the groundwater, and for many other applications. Portable ion chromatography systems are used by environmental professionals, by water utilities, by food testing laboratories, by researchers, and for many other applications. With their portability, portable ion chromatography systems are essential for on-site ion analysis.

FAQ

Q1: What scenarios is this system used for?

A: It separates and quantifies anions or cations in water and environmental samples on site, using a compact pump, column and detector for field surveys.

Q2: What standards does it comply with?

A: It follows EPA 300 series, ISO 10304 and related GB/T standards, with calibration using traceable standards. The relevant parameters are verified during final inspection before shipment, and compliance documentation or test reports can be provided on request for your quality records.

Q3: What is the warranty?

A: The system carries a 12 to 24 month warranty covering the instrument. Columns and reagents are consumables. Damage from spills or misuse is excluded.

Q4: Is it hard to operate?

A: Operation requires trained staff for eluents, columns and peaks. We provide a manual and training.

Q5: What is the lead time?

A: Standard models require 7-30 working days. In-stock units can ship within 3-7 working days. Custom configurations or large built-to-order systems may require additional time, and we confirm the exact schedule before order confirmation.

Q6: Is calibration required?

A: We recommend verification against traceable standards at regular intervals, typically every 6 to 12 months, and keeping calibration records for audit purposes. The manual describes the procedure, and reference standards are available from us. Accredited third-party calibration can also be arranged on request.

Q7: Are consumables universal?

A: Compatible items are single-use consumables designed for this application. They are widely available in standard sizes, and we can supply them directly or confirm the specification so you can source them locally. Ongoing cost is limited to these consumables, and there are no proprietary locked parts.

Q8: Can it be customized?

A: Yes, several configurations are available. Options include target ions, battery, field cases and data connectivity. We can discuss further custom requirements, confirm feasibility and advise any effect on the schedule before the order is confirmed.

Q9: Is installation included?

A: Standard delivery includes the system and manual. Setup is performed by the user, with training available.

Q10: What samples are compatible?

A: It handles filtered aqueous samples within range. It is not for heavily contaminated samples, non-aqueous matrices, or ions outside column capability.
