G4 ICARUS CS HF Carbon and Sulphur Analyzer
Combustion Method with High-Frequency Furnace and Infrared Detection
The G4 ICARUS HF combustion analyzer is the ideal instrument for the rapid, precise and simultaneous determination of carbon and sulfur in numerous material types, such as: steel, iron, cast iron, alloys, non-ferrous metals, aluminum, titanium and alloys, zirconium and alloys, ores, ceramics, cement, limestone, and many more.
The G4 ICARUS HF is virtually maintenance free and easily operated via intuitive PCbased software. The solid sample is combusted in a high-frequency furnace in a flow of oxygen.
The carbon and sulfur components in the sample are oxidized to CO2 and SO2, respectively, and transported with the oxygen carrier gas through a solid-state NDIR detector system with two measuring ranges for both carbon and sulfur of maximum selectivity and stability.
The system is characterized by its high analytical speed, precision and sensitivity combined with ease of use and almost maintenance free operation.
By introducing key technology advances, the G4 ICARUS HF creates a new dimension of usability and productivity.
The innovative combustion zone design utilizes a gas extraction nozzle (pat. pend.) to ensure a high oxygen excess at the sample with instant removal of liberated gases and formed metal oxide dust.
A unique, fully automatic cleaning system with brush-free dust removal, ensures simultaneous cleaning of the inline dust filter and gas extraction nozzle while transferring accumulated dust into the (used) crucible for disposal. In conjunction with a new type, temperature stabilized dust filter these innovations create unrivalled characteristics and performance.
