Professional IC Systems «ProfIC 2 Cation» Professional IC system with Inline Ultrafiltration Professional IC system applying conductivity detection. For the fully automatic determination of cations or anions (non-suppressed) with Metrohm Inline Ultrafiltration. «ProfIC 2» masters all routine tasks in ion chromatography. It is easy to use and very reliable. Quality system components guarantee very high sensitivity and reproducible results. Particular attention has been given to long service intervals; these can be monitored by the intelligent MagIC Net software. «ProfIC 2» is equipped with Metrohm Inline Ultrafiltration, which reliably removes particles from the sample and protects the analytical column from particulate contamination. The lifetime of the column is increased significantly. The ultrafiltration cell is equipped with a membrane filter with a pore size of 0.2 m as standard and is suitable for samples with a light to medium particle load. Inline Ultrafiltration works fully automatically, which saves the time-consuming and expensive use of syringe filters. The ultrafiltration cell is mounted directly onto the 858 Professional Sample Processor. The bidirectional dualchannel peristaltic pump provides for sample transfer through the ultrafiltration cell and to the Professional IC system. The sample is continuously delivered at a high flow rate. This delays the formation of a filter cake and increases the working life of the membrane. Cross contamination is kept below 0.1%.

Professional IC Systems Metrohm Inline Ultrafiltration and dialysis Metrohm Inline Ultrafiltration Modern ion chromatography recommends all samples to be filtered prior to injection. Separation columns with particle sizes below 10 m require absolutely particle-free sample solutions. Unfiltered solutions can increase pressure on the column that in some cases can radically reduce the lifetime of the column. Manual filtration is usually carried out by means of disposable filter cartridges with a pore size of 0.45 m or less. These become clogged very quickly, particularly with samples containing very fine particles. Sample changers with filter caps are used as an alternative. Their pore size is often larger than that of disposable filters. However, they are expensive and there is still a risk of clogging. With Metrohm Inline Ultrafiltration, which belongs to the membrane separation techniques, these problems no longer apply. The samples are placed directly on the sample rack. When the samples are processed the sample flow is channelled into the lower chamber of the ultrafiltration cell and passes along the membrane and into the waste container. In the upper chamber of the cell a peristaltic pump creates a vacuum and draws the sample solution through the ultrafiltration membrane. The filtered sample solution enters the injection loop and is then injected. Less than 20% of the original solution is removed as filtrate, the remainder flows directly into the waste container. This, together with the geometrical arrangement of the cell, virtually eliminates the formation of a filter cake that could block the membrane. Metrohm Inline Ultrafiltration is particularly suitable for samples with a light to medium load, for example drinking water, surface water, wastewater, digestion solutions, extracts. Metrohm Inline Dialysis Highly polluted samples require complex and laborious sample preparation steps before they can be analyzed. Metrohm Inline Dialysis provides a considerable rationalization of the whole process. Samples must meet just one condition: they must be liquid or be able to be brought into liquid form and they need to be largely homogeneous. Larger particles can be removed by centrifuging, if necessary. The sample solution is then dialyzed in the dialysis cell according to the method patented by Metrohm (European Patent 0 820 804, US Patent 5,861,097). Due to this special «Inline Stopped- Flow Dialysis» method a virtually complete dialysis is obtained. This means that the acceptor solution has the same ionic concentration as the original sample (equilibrium dialysis). The acceptor solution is then injected directly into the ion chromatograph where it is analyzed. Whereas in ultrafiltration the sample solution is filtered through the membrane as a result of a difference in pressure, the driving force in dialysis is the difference in concentration between the two sides. The ions to be determined diffuse through the membrane, but no sample solution is forced through the membrane. This means that no filter cake is formed that could block the membrane. By means of this technique it is possible to determine anions and cations even in cutting oil emulsions, biodiesel, dairy products or body fluids such as blood and urine. If the system is programmed so that the next sample is dialyzed during the current run, the total analysis takes about the same time as direct injection. «Stopped flow» method An equilibrium is achieved between the acceptor solution and the sample solution Ultrafiltration 16 IC

Professional IC Systems «ProfIC 3 Cation» Professional IC system with Inline Dialysis Professional IC system applying conductivity detection. For the fully automatic determination of cations or anions (non-suppressed) with Metrohm Inline Dialysis. «ProfIC 3» safely masters demanding analytical tasks in ion chromatography. It is easy to use and extremely reliable. «ProfIC 3» features intelligent system components such as the ipump and the idetector and provides space for a total of three icolumns. The Professional IC system «ProfIC 3» is equipped with «Inline Stopped Flow Dialysis», which is protected by a Metrohm patent (European Patent 0 820 804, US Patent 5,861,097). This fully automatic sample preparation technique effectively removes particles and colloids from the samples. Emulsions, samples containing fats and proteins, body fluids and strongly polluted wastewater can be reliably analyzed without damaging the analytical column. The driving force behind dialysis is diffusion. Only the ions and not the particles can pass through the dialysis membrane. This increases the lifetime of the membrane and, for example, prevents oil droplets from reaching the analytical column through the membrane, as would be the case if filtration was to be used.

The dialysis cell is mounted directly into the 850 Professional IC. The coordinated operation of the two bidirectional peristaltic pumps at the 858 Professional Sample Processor Pump and 850 Professional IC Prep 1 enables the Inline Dialysis, which is controlled by MagIC Net. 17 IC

Professional IC Systems «ProfIC 4 Cation» Professional IC system with Inline Dilution Professional IC system applying conductivity detection. For the fully automatic determination of cations or anions (non-suppressed) in concentrated solutions. «ProfIC 4» can be used to analyze samples whose concentration is too high to be determined directly. High ionic concentrations overload the column, which results in poor chromatographic separation and therefore adversely affects the accuracy of the measurement. «ProfIC 4» allows automatic Inline Dilution of any sample. Dilution takes place at an external position of the 858 Professional Sample Processor. In combination with transfer tubing the 800 Dosino dosing system carries out the high-precision liquid handling steps. The MagIC Net software controls the dilution steps and carries out all calculations, only the dilution factor needs to be entered in the sample table. In addition, the software provides for intelligent dilution, i.e. dilution is carried out automatically depending on the predefined concentration limits. The software monitors the results and makes logical decisions.

Professional IC Systems «ProfIC 5 Cation» Professional IC system with variable sample preconcentration Professional IC system applying conductivity detection. For trace analysis of cations and anions (non-supressed). With the «ProfIC 5», concentrations down to the ppb range ( g/l) can be reliably determined. The intelligent 800 Dosino carries out the high-precision sample preconcentration on the preconcentration column, which replaces the sample loop. This means that it is possible to preconcentrate and analyse more than 50 ml of the sample instead of the 10...20 L sample used for direct injection via the sample loop. It is also possible to calibrate the system using the 800 Dosino dosing system. In this case it will suffice to work with the single most concentrated standard, of which varying volumes are transferred to the preconcentration column. This means that trace analyses are possible all the way down to the single-digit ppb range, even in routine analysis. «ProfIC 5» features intelligent system components such as the ipump, the idetector and the 800 Dosino dosing system and provides space for a total of three icolumns.

Professional IC Systems Reproducibility of the suppression For each measurement with the Metrohm Suppressor Module «MSM II», a fresh suppressor cartridge is used. Thus, you can always be sure that you are working with a cation exchanger that delivers its full performance: today, tomorrow, and even after years of uninterrupted use. The suppressor is characterized by its pressure stability; it is 100% solvent-resistant and impresses with its long working life. As no sensitive membranes are used, the suppressor reaches its equilibrium after a very short time and is then ready for use. That is exactly the reason why we give a 10-year warranty on the «MSM II». The Metrohm Suppressor Module is favorably-priced and robust. Reproducibility of measurements made with the «MSM II» is excellent as is shown by the chromatograms: 1 2 3 4 5 7 6 30 injections, separation of standard anions on the Metrosep A Supp 5-100/4.0, eluent 1.0 mmol/l NaHCO 3, 3.2 mmol/l Na 2 CO 3, flow 0.7 ml/min, loop 20 L, suppression with the Metrohm Suppressor Module «MSMII», regeneration with 50 mmol/l H 2 SO 4, rinsing with deionized water. 1 Fluoride 2 Chloride 3 Nitrite 4 Bromide 5 Nitrate 6 Phosphate 7 Sulfate Ion Fluoride Chloride Nitrite Bromide Nitrate Phosphate Sulfate Concentration (mg/l) 0.25 0.25 0.25 0.25 0.25 0.25 0.25 Relative standard deviation in % (n=30) 0.17 0.16 0.38 0.31 0.18 0.46 0.25 26 IC

Professional IC Systems Sequential suppression Sequential suppression is the combination of chemical suppression using the «MSM II» with Metrohm CO 2 Suppression «MCS». In this way anions can be detected with carbonate/ bicarbonate eluents at the low background conductivity of hydroxide eluents. The removal of the CO 2 prevents the carbonate equilibrium from negatively affecting the peak areas. The benefit for the user: Peak areas thus obtained are up to 50% larger at the same concentration and for the same sample volume; this means lower detection limits. No carbonate peak also means no annoying interference with the quantification of certain analyte anions. For example, chloride and carbonate coelute on many polystyrene-divinylbenzene columns. By using the CO 2 suppressor such problems are a thing of the past. The virtual elimination of the injection peak improves the determination of rapidly eluting anions, for example fluoride. Although the separation of the injection peak and fluoride peak is already very good on polyalcohol columns, the detection limits can be improved even further by using the CO 2 suppressor. As the injection peak is practically no longer visible, considerably larger sample volumes can also be injected.

This fully automatic sample preparation technique effectively removes particles and colloids from the samples to be analyzed. Emulsions, samples containing fats and proteins, body fluids and strongly polluted wastewater can be reliably determined without damaging the analytical column. The driving force behind dialysis is diffusion. This means that only the ions and not the particles can pass through the dialysis membrane. This increases the lifetime of the membrane and, for example, prevents oil droplets from reaching the analytical column through the membrane, as would be the case if filtration was to be used.
