Reliable mercury determination with DMA-80 depends on the conditions and proper functioning of some key consumables.
CATALYST AND AMALGAMATOR
The catalyst and amalgamator are pivotal components of the direct mercury analysis process. The first component ensures full conversion of mercury to its elemental state, while the second concentrates mercury prior to its release into the spectrometer for quantitation. The efficiency of these components directly impacts blanks, cleaning cycles, reproducibility, and recoveries. Their regular replacement ensures accurate and precise data, reduced downtime, and increased the lab productivity. The typical lifetime of the catalyst and amalgamator averages between 2500 and 3000 runs.
