Combustion analyser for high-sensitivity carbon and sulphur analysis launched Bruker’s new G4 ICARUSTM
Series 2, is a versatile, high-sensitivity combustion analyser for carbon and sulphur concentration measurements in inorganic samples.
The G4 ICARUS Series 2 extends Bruker’s line of compact, high-efficiency and low-maintenance combustion analysers by introducing novel, high-sensitivity detection technology in combination with a unique, industry-proven furnace.
The G4 ICARUS Series 2 is equipped with HighSenseTM contrast to traditional IR absorption detectors, HighSenseTM
LED-powered detectors based on Non-Dispersive UV (NDUV) absorption photometry for sulphur detection. In delivers a ten times better signal-to-noise ratio and a linear dynamic range of five orders of magnitude
with no spectral or thermal interference. Based on this novel detection technique, the G4 ICARUS Series 2 outperforms conventional combustion analysers in analytical precision and accuracy, making it an excellent tool for demanding applications in academic and industrial laboratories. The furnace zone of the G4 ICARUS Series 2 is shielded by Bruker’s unique ZoneProtectTM
automatic cleaning by ZoneProtect reduces cycle times to below one minute, and thereby increases sample throughput. This makes the G4 ICARUS Series 2 a great choice for quality control in primary metal manufacturing, ceramics, mining and cement industries.
D Peter Paplewski, Product Line Manager for Bruker’s combustion analysis business, commented: “The analytical performance gained by the combination of our HighSense detector and ZoneProtect furnace technologies opens a new era in sulphur determination. The G4 ICARUS Series 2 delivers the analytical precision, accuracy, and long-term stability for research laboratories, while offering the proven efficiency, robustness and speed required in industrial environments. This makes the G4 ICARUS Series 2 the instrument of choice for carbon and sulphur analysis of all inorganic solids.”

SPECTRO Analytical Instruments has published a new white paper, “A New Approach to ICP-OES Analysis for Environmental Testing.” Environmental laboratories might like to standardise on one ICP-OES solution for most or all of their analysis needs. But different spectrometer types have different advantages and disadvantages for various applications. For instance, they derive diverse benefits from their internal plasma viewing technologies.
SPECTRO’s new white paper details how recent developments in viewing techniques helped create a versatile new type of spectrometer. Its brand-new dual side-on interface (DSOI) technology can offer significant advantages for environmental laboratories in routine applications, including waters, wastewaters, soils and sludges.

For instance, DSOI technology offers twice the sensitivity of conventional radial systems yet avoids the complexity, drawbacks, and cost of vertical dual view models. It provides high stability, the same high linearity as traditional radial-observation ICP-OES, improved ease of use and less maintenance requirements than vertical dual view systems. Additional advantages of the technique: only a measurement, using a single plasma view, is needed — a definite speed advantage compared to dual-view spectrometers.

ASTM D8148 – Bringing haze and clarity rating into the modern age now with the added capability to test colour
The determination and rating of haze and clarity in automotive, aviation and turbine fuels and lubricants have traditionally been performed by highly subjective visual methods such as the ASTM D4176 procedure 1 and 2 as well as D6986 for jet fuel. ASTM D8148 introduces a spectroscopic technique for the measurement of a fuel’s haziness or clarity. This method offers easy operation and world-class spectroscopic analytical performance, this automated approach delivers the rapid, precise and reliable haze determination measurement capability needed for today’s demanding petroleum-based process control and product quality assurance applications.
Choice Analytical’s Color Choice hz and Clarity Choice hz were developed with the goal of eliminating questions between producers, transporters and end users arising out of the subjectivity and lack of documentation found in the visual methods currently used in the field.
With today’s modern highly efficient engines, automotive manufacturers are being pushed to develop vehicles with more stringent standards. The manufacturer’s ability to quantify and require tighter fuel Haze limits at the retail and wholesale levels will aid in meeting performance and emission limits.
Providing even more value, the Color Choice hz has all the features and capabilities of the Clarity Choice hz but adds the ability to provide the users with the most commonly used colour scales in the petroleum industry. Using state of the art spectrophotometers and optics, the Color Choice hz tests according to D6045 used for Saybolt and ASTM colour as well as D5386 for Platinum Cobalt/APHA colour.
This combination gives exceptional flexibility and utility to those facilities whom require a greater level of capabilities and quality control. Users have found this functionality to be helpful in products such as fuels, lubricants and specialty chemicals.
