Leco TruMac CN Macro Determinator

Leco TruMac CN (Carbon/Nitrogen) Macro Determinator, Model 630-300-900

TruMac Series Macro Determinator

Designed to meet your goals for analyzing true macro samples. Easily handle characteristically heterogeneous, difficult-to-prepare, or low-level samples with the TruMac carbon/nitrogen determinator. Macro sample sizes (up to 1.5 grams for carbon/nitrogen) are quickly and simultaneously analyzed with a low cost-per-analysis.

A unique ceramic horizontal furnace, combined with LECO’s carbon/nitrogen determinator design, make the TruMac ideal for a variety of applications including soils, feeds, meats, starches, slurries, or wastewater. In addition, the TruMac complies with AOAC, AACC, AOCS, and ASBC-approved methods of analysis.

Instrument Highlights and Features

Unique Ceramic Horizontal Furnace:

• Pure oxygen environment ensures the complete oxidation of macro samples with maximum temperatures up to 1450 C
• Ceramic lance directs oxygen flow directly onto the sample
• Robust design utilizes six heating elements for increased reliability and efficiency
• Purge chamber eliminates atmosphere entrainment in samples

Easy and Convenient Sample Handling:

• Large, reusable sample boats facilitate the handling of macro samples
• Open ceramic boats provide ample surface area for the efficient purge and combustion of macro samples
• Sample ash retained in boat for post-analysis removal
• Nickel liners and/or nickel boats available for the analysis of liquid samples in TruMac nitrogen configurations

Seamless Integrated Automation:

• Autoloader for sequential and non-sequential analysis of up to 50 pre-weighed samples
• Rugged design for improved reliability and minimal maintenance requirements
• Full automation of analysis cycle, freeing operator to perform other tasks

Improved Design and Accessibility for Maintenance of Combustion Gas Handling and Aliquot System:

• Carbon/nitrogen configuration utilizes an efficient thermoelectric cooler to remove moisture from combustion gas, eliminating the need for chemical anhydrone
• Ballast allows for collection of aliquot for nitrogen and carbon detection eliminates the need for whole gas analysis
• Quick-release ballast assembly and exterior-mounted pinch-valve assembly simplifies preventive maintenance routines

The TruMac CN can be utilized for your most challenging applications. Quickly and easily analyze carbon and nitrogen for your difficult-to-prepare environmental and agricultural samples.
