Analytical Instrumentation Enjoy Remarkable Readability and Reliable Results


With New Analytical and Precision Balances Featuring a high-resolution graphic display and intuitive features, Adam Equipment’s Solis analytical, milligram and precision balances provide an outstanding solution for complex lab weighing tasks. Solis is ideal for research and quality assurance labs; science education; precision counting; and pilot production and manufacturing applications needing precision results. Available in a wide selection of precision, analytical and semi-micro models, Solis offers capacities up to 8,200g with readabilities of 0.1mg, 1mg and 0.01g. Dual-range, semi-micro analytical models boast capacities of 120g and 220g and a readability of 0.01mg. Ideal for labs that test large samples, Solis models with 410g and 510g capacity offer 0.1mg analytical readability.


Data is readily visible on the large graphic display, so users can view information simultaneously instead of scrolling through different screens. Multilingual capability facilitates use in various regions. Used and available capacity can quickly be monitored by viewing the tracker located prominently on the left side of the display. The keypad features easy-to-read buttons and helpful navigation arrows. Formulation is simplified, as Solis stores up to 99 ingredients. Memory accumulation totals results, while the hold function freezes the displayed weight.


An audible alarm makes checkweighing speedy and smooth, and parts counting is simple with preset sample sizes. Other applications include percentage weighing, dynamic/ animal weighing, accumulation, and density determination. We designed Solis with a compact footprint that takes up minimal room on desks or in crowded labs. The pan is constructed of sturdy grade 304 stainless steel to allow swift, thorough cleaning. Solis is equipped with a level indicator and adjustable feet, ensuring proper balance setup for optimum weighing results. Models with 1mg readability are equipped with a sliding door draft shield, boosting accuracy by eliminating the effects of breezes. Selectable digital filtering minimises the effects of vibration and disturbances.


Printouts provided by the balance include date and time, essential for traceability and data tracking within Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) guidelines. An RS-232 interface is available for speedy connection to computers and printers. Solis provides external calibration, allowing for verification and adjustment with weights. Some models are available with built-in motorised calibration capability. Solis incorporates important security features to provide added protection for your investment. Security password control requires authorisation before the balance can be accessed, ensuring settings remain unchanged. To help prevent theft, Solis also features a slot that accommodates an optional Kensington-type lock and cable.

Cost-effi cient Nitrogen System for Single Quad LC-MS Introduced


Peak Scientific has introduced a new nitrogen gas solution to the market, Genius SQ 24.


A standalone plug & play nitrogen generator, Genius SQ 24 is a cost-effective solution specifically designed for single quad mass-spectrometers which require up to 24L/min of analytical grade nitrogen gas.


Genius SQ 24 is an ideal solution for these less demanding LC-MS applications, offering a perfect balance of performance and value, with trusted Peak reliability and on-site service coming as standard.


This compact nitrogen generator, which can easily fit under most standard lab benches, delivers analytical grade nitrogen gas, with a variable flow rate of between 3 and 24L/min, at up to 116 psi.


Described by Peak Scientific as ‘The best value nitrogen generator on the market’ the Genius SQ 24 comes with a 12-month comprehensive warranty and has been designed with optimised performance in mind.


MASS-STREAM™ instruments from Bronkhorst High-Tech BV operate on the basis of direct through-flow measurement in accordance with the constant temperature anemometer principle. They contain no moving parts and the measured gases pass the two stainless steel sensor probes directly, without bypass.


As a result, the gases are entirely unhindered on their flow path, making the series particularly suitable for applications with low pressure loss as well as less sensitive to moisture and particulate contamination than thermal mass flow instruments with a bypass sensor.


The electronics casing has a robust design with an IP65 level of protection (dustproof and splash waterproof). The mass flow meters and controllers can be supplied with an optional integrated multifunctional display. On the new D-6390 model, the maximum measuring range has been expanded to 10,000 ln/min air equivalent.


Analogue I/O signals as well as an RS232 interface are provided by default. In addition, an interface with DeviceNet™, PROFIBUS DP, Modbus or FLOW-BUS protocols can be integrated. Typical applications include gas consumption measurements, aeration and purging processes or natural gas/ biogas applications.

Petra Gierga, Product Manager at Peak Scientific, commented: “Genius SQ 24 is a reliable technology solution for labs which require a compact and affordable nitrogen gas supply for their single quad MS. Designed with integrated compressors, the SQ 24 is a standalone ‘plug & play’ generator which takes up minimal valuable lab space.”


The Genius SQ 24 comes backed by Peak Protected global on-premise servicing and technical support and is available to order now. For More Info, email:

New ‘8 Wastes’ Lean Lab Guide Optimises Laboratory Workfl ows


The ‘8 Waste’ methodology of lean management principles focuses on lab processes in a new Mettler Toledo guide and offers a useful way to identify non-value adding or unnecessary steps in routine workfl ows. Commonly performed tasks benefi t from streamlining in terms of productivity and cost savings.

Labs often perform the same operations repeatedly, causing process steps to become familiar. This makes it diffi cult for lab operators and management to assess these processes with a critical eye—particularly in the absence of a systematic methodology to help them identify wasteful or unnecessary actions.


Created with the help of both internal and external process experts, Mettler Toledo’s ‘8 Wastes Guide’ will provide lab operators and managers with a concrete methodology for identifying time- and resource- wasting lab efforts. This will help optimise routine workfl ows such as buffer preparation, batch release, and other common activities.

‘8 Wastes’ were originally identifi ed by Toyota’s chief engineer Taiichi Ohno within the context of their manufacturing program. Applying this effective framework to labs of all types can improve lead times and process accuracy. This can benefi t both internal and external clients and result in processes that are more easily scalable to production volumes.


Mettler Toledo’s ‘8 Wastes Guide’ describes what the 8 wastes are, according to the acronym ‘DOWNTIME’, which refers to: defects; over- production; waiting time; not engaging all employees; transportation; inventory; motion/distances; and fi nally extra-processing. It goes on to provide examples of where these wastes typically occur in a laboratory environment, with examples from a range of workfl ows and translates its wisdom into applicable guidelines for assessing workfl ows using common lab equipment. Laboratory managers and operators can gain a clear idea where lean potential can be found in day-to-day processing efforts.


Overall, the ‘8 Wastes’ guide will help eliminate errors and improve overall quality and effi ciency by ensuring that processes are optimised and sustainable. The guide will also show how to determine the cost- and resource-savings impact of changes that are being contemplated.
