Process Analytical Systems are designed
for reliability, accuracy, low maintenance, and regulatory compliance. Their IC
(ion chromatography) and HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography)
capabilities allow determination of species that are not possible with other process
analytical techniques. Multicomponent characterization of a sample can be
performed in a single analysis and multiple samples can be scheduled for
automatic analysis.
A Dionex Integral system (see Figure 1-1 ) is configured to perform a specific
analysis. A system typically contains an analytical pump, a detector, and an SP
Sample Preparer.
A Dionex Integral analyzer consists of from one to four systems combined to
operate in parallel. The analyzer is configured to sequentially monitor up to 21
samples. An SS Stream Selector can be used to select a sample from multiple
sample streams.
Dionex Integral analyzers are controlled by Thermo Scientific
