surement used in steam generating
power and other industrial plants depending
on boilers for steam process
heating. The CE800 also measures
pH, which provides an additional
parameter of importance to ensure
water quality in the plant. The cation
resin converts low-conductivity
mineral ions, such as Na+, Ca2+ and
Mg2+, to form an acid, which has a
high conductivity level H+ ion. This
acid form has a conductivity that is
three- to six-times greater than the
corresponding salt, so the sensor is
much more sensitive, effective and
reliable in measuring water impurities
than other methods. - ECD Analyzers,

New mass spectrometer for
compound identification
The BenchTOF2 (photo) is a nextgeneration
mass spectrometer for
gas chromatography (GC) and twodimensional
GC (GC×GC). Through
enhanced sensitivity, improved spectral
quality, heightened selectivity and
an extended dynamic range, the
BenchTOF2 is said to maximize the
amount of information extracted from
every single sample, and removes
the guesswork associated with compound
identification. BenchTOF2 has
detection limits of less than 20 femtograms
(20 × 10-15 g), improved
match factors and isotope abundancies,
mass accuracy of less than 50
parts per million (ppm) and advanced
software, which includes isotope
overlays, tools for automated filtering
of chromatograms and a mass-toformula
calculator. - SepSolve Analytical
Ltd., Peterborough, U.K.

The first net-zero mass
spectrometer introduced
The Delta Q isotope
ratio mass
spectrometer (IRMS; photo) is a
next generation gas IRMS designed
to enable detailed analysis with
greater precision and accuracy. In
addition to its improved specifications,
including an upgrade in software
to Qtegra ISDS to dramatically
improve ease-of-use and laboratory
productivity,
the
system's
carbon
footprint will be neutralized, allowing
scientists to carry out their work,
while minimizing their environmental
impact. The Delta Q IRMS is the first
product released as part of the IsoFootprint
campaign, an initiative to
permanently remove CO2 emissions
associated
with
the
manufacture
and supply chain of all new inorganic
IRMS products. - Thermo Fisher

This gas analyzer has new
digital communication abilities
Purpose-built to detect ultra-low
concentrations of NOx (oxides of
nitrogen) emissions in industrial and
commercial combustion applications,
the new Rosemount XECLD
process gas analyzer (photo) leverages
the digital architecture of the
Rosemount X-Stream Enhanced (XE)
suite of continuous gas analyzers to
offer a full range of web-based communication
capabilities, including
secure, remote connectivity without
the installation of additional software.
The XECLD utilizes chemiluminescence
measurement technology with
a thermoelectrically
cooled,
solidstate
detector assembly to ensure
highly stable measurement performance
and a longer operating life.
User-selectable NOx measurement
ranges are from 0-5 up to 10,000
ppm. - Emerson, St. Louis, Mo.

Taking elemental analysis to
the next level
The Spectro Arcos inductively coupled
plasma, optical-emission spectrometer
(ICP-OES; photo) precisely
analyzes the elemental composition
of metals, chemicals, petrochemicals,
and more. The new enhancements
introduced in the instrument
include: a new dual side-on interface
(DSOI) plasma viewing option
featuring
two
on
optical
interfaces;
a MultiView plasma viewing option;
advanced line-array detectors,
based
complementary
metaloxide-semiconductor
(CMOS) technology,
which are said to be equal
to or surpass the performance of
legacy charged-coupled device
(CCD) detectors; and more. The system
delivers a high resolution over a
wide spectral range (130-770 nm),
as well as ultra-high-speed readout
(simple matrices can be analyzed
in 30 s). - Spectro Analytical
Instruments GmbH, Kleve, Germany
