The Nova is ideal as an entry level research instrument or for quality control applications.
All Nova systems can measure BET surface area down to 0.01m2/g and full nitrogen adsorption/desorption isotherms from 10-4 P/P0 to P/P0=1 for pore size analysis.
The Nova is available with:
1-4 analysis ports for simultaneous measurement of up to 4 samples.
Integrated degas stations.
Capabilities for sorption studies with gases other than N2 such as CO2, C4H10, Ar, etc.
Multiple P0 determination options including continuous P0 measurement.
Operation in classical Helium void volume or patented Helium-free modes.
Integrated keyboard allows stand-alone use for routine measurements. Additional features are available using the NovaWin software package on a laboratory PC, including the full Quantachrome surface area and pore-size analysis library, with classical and state-of-the-art DFT methods.
