Oxygen Flask Combustion Unit - OFCU

Overview

Orbit Technologies Pvt. Ltd. is the exclusive distributor of Exeter Analytical, Inc  in the Indian market. Exeter Analytical, Inc has been designing and manufacturing Oxygen Flask Combustion Unit (OFCU) to meet the needs of today’s research and testing laboratories.

The Schöniger flask combustion method is used to prepare samples for elemental analysis. The sample is combusted in an oxygen-filled flask, and the resulting products are absorbed into a solution for subsequent analysis by techniques such as titration or ion chromatography. It is suitable for determining elements such as chlorine, bromine, iodine, sulfur and phosphorus at percentage and trace levels

Description

APPLICATIONS

The analysis of:
  • Chlorine
  • Iodine
  • Sulfur
  • Boron
  • Bromine
  • Fluorine
  • Phosphorus
  • Some trace metals in organic matrices

ADVANTAGES

  • Safety: Any potential explosion is contained within the unit itself.
  • The combustion procedure is carried out in a sealed flask, minimizing potential combustion product leaks. Interlocks prevent operation if the door is open.
  • Low initial unit cost and next to zero running costs.
  • Simple operation.
