Technical Features
summarizes the major technical features of the EA IsoLink IRMS System for CNSOH.
Instrument Configurations
The Flash IRMS Elemental Analyzer is able to be coupled to an Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer
(IRMS) for the following determinations. See
Software Requirements
Thermo Scientific Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer series require the use of the Isodat Software Suite.
In most cases the installation of Isodat Software Suite is sufficient to operate the EA IsoLink IRMS
System for CNSOH. See

IMPORTANT
Oxygen and hydrogen analyses are performed using the
left
furnace (high
temperature conversion). Nitrogen, carbon and sulfur analyses are performed using the
right
furnace for combustion.
ATTENTION
If you want to operate with the EA IsoLink CNSOH as a stand-alone instrument, you
need to install Eager
