Designed with advanced robotics for rapid sample preparation, the AQ700 allows continuous operation, even overnight, making it ideal for laboratories handling large quantities of samples. The optical design with an inert glass cuvette ensures no cross-contamination, and the instrument has a wide range of chemical analysis capabilities. With support for integration with Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS), the AQ700 is optimised to meet both regulatory requirements and practical needs in environmental analysis.
Features and benefits
✅ High throughput: Four robotic arms and four sample trays allow for long unattended operation and high throughput.
✅ Automatic dilution and standard preparation: the AQ700 handles over-concentrated samples and prepares calibration curves without manual intervention.
✅ Optically clean glass cuvette: No cross-contamination risk thanks to inert materials recommended by EPA.
✅ Flexible analysis options: Possibility of longer optical path length for increased sensitivity and lower detection limit.
✅ Programmable tests per sample: efficient analysis of up to 10 working standards to create the calibration curve.
✅ Low reagent consumption: Ultra-efficient reagent use that reduces operating costs.
✅ Approved methods: AQ700 complies with international standards, including ISO & USEPA for wastewater and drinking water, as well as the UKAS equivalent "UK Blue Book".
Applications
The AQ700 is excellent for a wide range of environmental applications, including:
✅ Alkalinity
✅ Ammonia
✅ Chloride
✅ Cyanides
✅ Nitrate/Nitrite
✅ Phosphate (ortho and total phosphorus)
✅ Silicate
✅ Sulphate
✅ Total nitrogen and total phosphorus
