Monosorb: single point flowing physisorption analyser for BET surface area
The Monosorb offers extremely rapid and simple determination of surface area of powder materials. Using the single-point Nitrogen BET method, a measurement typically requires 5-10 minutes. A built-in calibration facility, with gas dosing loop, allows easy verification of the instrument at any moment.
- Simple and fast to use. Flowing N2 BET measurement in 6 minutes.
- No void-volume or gas nonideality corrections.
- Direct display of measured surface area.
- High sensitivity TCD sensor allows use of small sample amounts - down to 0.1 m2 with N2.
- Also allows use of other non-corrosive gases (e.g. Ar, Kr, CO, CO2).
- Selectable flow-path allows measurement of large area samples.
- Independent degas port with independent heater (350°C max) for sample preparation.
The instrument is extremely reliable, and requires very little maintenance:
- The TCD operates at a very low power, assuring stable, linear performance for many years.
- Calibration is simple and rapid, using the integrated injection loop to provide a knows gas volume for the detector. It is trivial to verify the calibration daily.
- A septum and gas syringe may also be used, if different or variable volume calibrations are required.
For more demanding applications, you may also be interested in some of our vacuum volumetric/manometric surface area and porosity instruments:
- Autosorb-iQ Series: high performance single or dual sample sorption analysers, with upgrade options for low surface area Krypton, low pressure, static chemisorption, flowing chemisorption....
- NOVA-e multi-sample surface area analyser for simultaneous measurement of up to 4 samples, for routine surface area or porosimetry.
We would be delighted to discuss your application with you.
