Flowing System A pump moves the sample from a sampler to a spectrophotometer, a density meter and then through a pH meter. The software controls all devices and collects data at correct intervals.
Raw data is analyzed and corrected against standards.
Specialized calculations can be performed. Chlorophyll analysis using a spectrophotometer Nitrates and phosphates using flow-through Ion Specific Electrodes Sugar analysis using both a refractometer and a polarimeter Top Custom System Example Chloride Analysis by FIA FIA is a continuously flowing system, where an injection valve introduces a sample into a line with reagents. After a brief reaction period, the mixture is analyzed in a detector, which produces analog data in the form of peaks. Labtronics software controls all devices, performing timed events and analyzes the analog peak data. Top Custom System Example Soil Sample Testing Labtronics recently configured a fully-automated Ion Magic system to take pH readings for a soil testing lab.
