This automated ion chromatograph is designed for high-throughput analysis of anions and cations. It integrates online degassing, solvent delivery, an autosampler, a suppressor, a column oven, and conductivity detection. The autosampler includes automatic dilution for sequential analysis of concentrated samples. Compatible high-throughput ion columns can complete standard anion or cation analysis within five minutes. An automatically exchanged gel suppressor provides stable, reproducible, and sensitive continuous operation. The low-dead-volume suppressor design reduces band dispersion. An optional automated eluent-preparation unit supplies consistent mobile-phase composition from concentrate and ultrapure water. The instrument can also be expanded with dedicated UV-visible detection or online combustion for solid samples.
