Description

The Tekran 2700 is a fully integrated Gas Chromatography Cold-Vapor Atomic Fluorescence Spectrophotometer (GC-CVAFS) automated Methyl Mercury analysis system. The 2700 can analyze distilled waters, extracted or distilled tissues and solids, and allows direct analysis of suitable water samples. The system is pre-programmed to run EPA Method 1630, however it offers complete method customization including: GC column temperature ramping; programmable analysis cycle settings; high temperature purge cycles; and choice of trap and GC column. It can also interface with ICP-MS or other analytical instruments. The sample analysis cycle is less than 7 minutes per sample. It has a minimum detection limit of 0.002 nanograms per liter (ng/L). The system has IR trap heating and active cooling.
