FIA-System - Technology and Methods

FIA-System is a cost-effective and fast analyser system for laboratories performing water, soil and environmental analysis. It uses standardised wet-chemistry methods with photometric detection.

 

FIA-System is based on the flow injection principle where a defined sample volume is introduced in a flowing carrier. The carrier transports the sample to the flow detector adding reagents on the way to perform reactions transforming the analyte in a product that can be determined with high sensitivity and selectivity.

 

  

Flow-(Injection)-Analysis is the optimal means
for implementing a variety of processes like
  • solid-phase reaction
  • solid-phase extraction
  • liquid-liquid extraction
  • energy exchange
  • membrane processes like gas transfer and  dialysis
all of which are used in the FIA-System for integrated
sample pretreatment (digestion), sensitivity increase
by enrichment and so on.
 
The analytical methods come as complete
parameter-dedicated method modules
