XPLORER-NS*

Total Nitrogen and Sulfur Analyzer

The XPLORER-NS was developed as a total nitrogen/total sulfur combustion analyzer, capable of handling fully automated applications for liquids, solids, and gases (including LPG samples.) Changing from the liquids & gas module to the solids module has never been easier. Just push one button and the liquids module is automatically retracted from the heated zone. No clamps or manual locks required.

• Ultra-low detection limit, high stability and reliability due to the temperature controlled detectors and feedback control loop.
• Compact design, with the smallest footprint in the market.
• Short start-up time. (Less than 15 minutes from standby mode).
• Fast and precise measurement of liquids, solids, and gases (including LPGs).
• Automation available for each type of measurement.
• Easy to use and intuitive user interface and operational software.
• Simultaneous analysis of nitrogen & sulfur.
• Fast and easy switching between modules, resulting in high productivity.
• Complies with international standards like: ASTM, ISO, EN and IP.
• Fully automated creation of calibration curves from a single stock solution with the optional ARCHIE.
• Fast generation of sample lists and application methods.
• Low maintenance due to optimal combustion and the proper conditioning of the resulting gases produces near zero downtime.
