AMA254 Provides Advanced Mercury Analysis
Sep 15 2014
LECO’s AMA254 Advanced Mercury Analyzer is specifically designed for fast, safe, and accurate determination of trace amounts of mercury in various materials—including coal, combustion residues, soils, biological samples, and other solid/liquid samples.
The AMA254 technique of direct combustion features a combustion/catalyst tube that decomposes a sample in an oxygen-rich environment and removes interfering elements. A gold amalgamator trap collects all mercury from the evolved gases, and a dual-path length cuvette/spectrophotometer specifically determines mercury over a wide dynamic range.
With method approvals by the EPA and ASTM, the AMA254 offers a fast, cost-effective alternative to conventional CVAAS or ICP. This unique system combusts various matrices without sample pre-treatment or concentration steps - saving valuable time. To enhance productivity, an optional 45-position autoloader is available. The instrument requires no hazardous chemicals, providing mercury determination in as little as five minutes.
