Ion Chromatograph – Quali-IC™ 120+

The Quali-IC™ 120+ utilizes an auto-range conductivity detector with a high resolution of ≤ 0.0020 nS/cm, allowing for seamless measurement across a broad 0–50,000 μS/cm range. To ensure measurement reliability, the system incorporates an integrated gas-liquid separator to eliminate flow-path bubbles and advanced software algorithms for baseline deduction. This combination minimizes gradient-related drift and maintains a stable baseline (noise ≤ 0.001 μS/cm), meeting the rigorous standards of US EPA 300.1 and ASTM D2036.

  • Chemically Inert PEEK Flow Path: pH 0 to 14 Compatibility
  • Optional 120-Vial High-Performance Autosampler
  • Ultra-Low Sample Carry-Over: <= 0.001%
  • High-Pressure Dual-Piston Pump: Up to 42 MPa
