XPLORER-NS

Product catalog summary
Overview: The XPLORER-NS by TE Instruments is a combustion analyzer designed for the precise measurement of Total Nitrogen and Total Sulfur in various sample types, including solids, liquids, gases, and LPGs. It offers both standardized and customizable solutions for modern laboratories, with capabilities ranging from low ppb to high ppm levels.
Key Features:
  • Compact design with the smallest footprint in the market.
  • Quick start-up time of less than 15 minutes.
  • Simultaneous analysis of Nitrogen and Sulfur.
  • Complies with international standards such as ASTM, ISO, EN, and IP.
  • Automated calibration and sample handling with optional ARCHIE and GLS modules.
  • Low maintenance with high stability and reliability due to temperature-controlled detectors.
Compliance and Standards: The XPLORER-NS complies with various international standards for Total Sulfur and Total Nitrogen, including ASTM D5453, ASTM D4629, and others. It is suitable for applications in chemical, petrochemical, and governmental laboratories.
Operational Flexibility: The analyzer can be operated manually or fully automated. Manual operation includes integrated syringe and boat drives for liquid and solid samples, respectively. Automated operation is facilitated by the ARCHIE and GLS auto samplers for liquids and gases/LPGs.
Methodology: The XPLORER-NS uses high-temperature combustion followed by chemiluminescence and UV-fluorescence detection to measure Nitrogen and Sulfur. This method is compliant with international standards and provides low detection limits.
Industrial Applications: The analyzer is applicable in various industries, including chemicals (e.g., acetic acid, polypropylene), refinery products (e.g., crude oil, gasoline), and gases/LPGs.
Software: TE Instruments Analytical Software (TEIS) provides an intuitive interface for controlling the XPLORER series, allowing for efficient and reliable analysis. It supports real-time measurement curves, multi-elemental analysis, and customizable applications.
Technical Specifications:
  • Dimensions: 36 x 27.2 x 69 cm
  • Weight: 32 kg
  • Power: 1150 W
  • Furnace temperature: up to 1150 °C
  • Sample introduction: Solid by boat, Liquid direct injection, Gases and LPGs by GLS

How does it work? Samples are introduced, using the appropriate introduction module, into a furnace, where the oxidation combustion, nitric oxide (NO) and Sulfur dioxide (SO 2) are formed and led into the Liquids module* serial connected reaction chambers, in the meantime water and particles have been removed. COMBUSTION Sulfur detection: R-SN + O 2 Nitrogen detection: Sulfur is measured by pulsed UV-fluorescence. Sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) is formed during the oxidation and is transferred to the reaction chamber. Here it is excited by a pulsed UV Electronically generated ozone is added which source...
