PSA - Model S570C100 - Cooling Coil Module
The PSA S570C100 is an accessory specifically designed to be used with the PSA S570U100 Heated Speciation Coil or the PSA 10.570 UV Cracker in speciation studies of organomercury, organoarsenic or organoselenium compounds and the automatic digestion for total mercury analysis using vapour generation atomic fluorescence spectrometric detection.
During the reaction of the organo compounds within either of the accessories, the carrier liquid can be heated to the extent that it can cause excess condensation in the tubing prior to the permapure resulting in loss of sensitivity. In the past, operators would overcome this problem with a long outlet tube which was immersed in a large beaker of ice or ice water. This method resolves the problem but is quite inconvenient and generally needs a lot of operator attention.
By installing the PSA S57C100 Cooling Module in the system between the PSA S570U100 or the PSA 10.570 and the speciation mixing module, the carrier liquid is cooled in a convenient and reproducible manner which allows the permapure to operate efficiently without loss of sensitivity.
The PSA S570C100 operates by passing the carrier liquid through a small bore tube (to reduce peak broadening) which is enclosed in a larger tube through which cooling water from a recycling water chiller or tap water supply flows in a counter current direction which ensures maximum cooling effect.
