This high Performance Microflow Analyser is the latest generation of the original world-class TechniconTM Segmented Flow Analysis (SFA) systems. Segmented Flow Analysis systems offer high throughput - 3000+ results per day; low reagent use; ultra low detection limits and less than 1ul reagent use per sample. The QuAAtro basic SFA system consists of a liquid autosampler, a peristaltic pump, a chemistry manifold, a detector and AACE data acquisition software. Sample and reagents are pumped continuously through the chemistry manifold. Air bubbles are introduced at regular intervals forming unique reaction segments which are mixed using glass coils. Glass is ideal, as it is inert, stays clean and enables easy visual checks. In segmented flow analysis, even slow reactions can run to completion and the ratio of sample to reagents in the detector reaches a constant maximum value - the steady
 

The result... Reduced operator time ... Lower Training Costs ... System Checks its own performance ... low detection limits and high reproducibility.

Microflow Technology - 1mm ID Glass
QuAAtro is a microflow system, the internal diameter of all glassware being 1mm. This reduces reagent consumption and increases throughput, with most methods running 100 – 120 samples hour. The optimal bubble frequency for each method is programmed by silent air valves to improve flow stability.

Manifolds and Detectors are Heated to 370 C
The integrated enclosed manifold and detector share the same temperature control system and are heated to 37º C. This reduces ownership cost and increases ease of use. It also means the system is not as susceptible to changes in environmental temperature. High temperature heating baths, distillation and dialyzers are available for methods that require them.

Automated Start-up and Shut-down
QuAAtro is designed to make life as easy as possible - with automatic start-up, automatic run-time monitoring and automatic shutdown.
