Metalyser HM1000
Product code: HM1000
Portable Heavy Metals Analyser, accurate to ppb levels
The HM1000 is a new instrument that allows for heavy metals analysis to be undertaken in the field, obtaining results down to ppb levels that would otherwise only be achieved through laboratory work. The instrument provides a simple and efficient solution for monitoring five heavy metals found in a variety of waters:
- Arsenic
- Cadmium
- Copper
- Mercury
- Lead
The HM1000 is the first of Wagtech's new range of heavy metals testing equipment, of which the Metalyser brand will eventually comprise of portable, on-line and bench-top versions.
Features
- Detection of heavy metals down to ppb levels
- Measures 5 parameters in water, Cu, Cd, Pb, As, Hg
- Parameter range expandable without the need to upgrade the instrument
- Low-cost per test and low running costs
- Rapid results - typical analysis time < 5 minutes
- Stand-alone operation
- Completely portable, all inclusive kit - no need to transport samples to the laboratory
