The G4 ICARUS C-HF has been designed with customer feedback in mind. Many of time-consuming maintenance requirements found in other combustion gas analyzers have been replaced with innovative, time-saving designs. A proprietary furnace reduces unwanted combustion by-products, such as splatter against interior furnace components. The filter system, accessible without tools, is positioned behind a transparent enclosure for convenient monitoring. In addition, the combustion process and quartz tube integrity can be observed via a furnace viewing port. These benefits combine to reduce instrument downtime and improve sample throughput significantly.

Georg Schick, Vice President Industrial Sales & Marketing of the Bruker Elemental division, commented: “Low operating expenses as well as proven reliability and an extended ’bumper-to-bumper‘ warranty provide the peace of mind that makes the ICARUS a ’no-brainer‘ for this market segment.”

New G4 ICARUS C-HF features:

• Optimized carbon detector
• Affordable pricing
• Reduced downtime
• Minimal furnace maintenance
• Superior sample throughput
• Fewer furnace consumable replacements
• Unsurpassed component warranties
• Minimal gas consumption
