ICS-3000 High Performance Ion Chromatography System

Description

 

The Thermo Scientific ICS-3000 Reagent-Free™ IC System with Eluent Generation provides a wide range of powerful capabilities. From advanced autosampling technologies, including well plate capability, to dual-electrochemical, mass spectrometry, and optical detection capabilities, the ICS-3000 high performance IC system allows chemists to save time, labor, and operating costs while increasing the productivity and reproducibility of any IC application. The ICS-3000 Automation Manager provides access to complex multiple-valve configurations for sample preparation and derivatization. The wide variety of ICS-3000 modules enables you to configure a highly flexible system to produce the results you need.

• Autosamplers to cover automation needs from simple injections to complex sample preparation
• ICS-3000 SP and DP Pumps for highest performance separations
• ICS-3000 EG Eluent Generator for the benefits of Reagent-Free IC
• ICS-3000 DC Detector/Chromatography module, a high performance environmental chamber
• ICS-3000 TC Thermal Compartment for precise temperature control from 5 to 85 ºC
• Wide range of detectors
• ICS-3000 Conductivity Detector with advanced temperature control
• ICS-3000 Electrochemical Detectors for high sensitivity determination of difficult analytes
• ICS-Series VWD and Photodiode Array detectors for optical absorbance detection
• Mass Spectrometry detector for selective and highly sensitive analysis

The ICS-3000 has a Dual-RFIC™ system configuration for high-throughput and complex applications. This system brings extremely reproducible, stable, and sensitive ion chromatography to today’s laboratory. High flow rate accuracy, precise Eluent Generator gradient performance, and conductivity cell temperature control increase baseline stability and enhance sensitivity.

Review date: 15 May 2013

Application Area: high salt solutions
ICS-3000 High Performance Ion Chromatography System

"This IC easily has the low detection limits necessary to determine anions in salt and bleach solutions (high ionic strength).  The anions we look for are chlorate, bromate, perchlorate, sulfate, phosphate, iodide, and fluoride.  We are going to investigate the use of this instrument for cations (metals) since ICP/OES & ICP/MS have some issues with detection limits.  The service we get is fantastic and they are always willing to help us develop methods."

ICS-3000 High Performance Ion Chromatography System

"Very easy to use, software is user-friendly with different screen for pump operation suppressor and full view screen. I don't need to prepare solvents as the system dilutes concentrated solution. Dionex provides excellent service, they respond to calls right away and answer any questions."
