Dionex Corporation is pleased to announce the release of two new UV-Vis detector modules, a TC thermostatted column oven, and an all-PEEK flow path option for the ICS-3000 product line. These new options make the ICS-3000 the optimal ion chromatography system for direct detection of ions, including light absorbing ions such as nitrate, nitrite, and aromatic acids, in water samples. Postcolumn derivatization further expands capabilities to include analysis of bromate, silica, chromate, and other transition metals. The device meets the requirements for U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Method 218.6 for hexavalent chromium, Method 317 for bromate, and other EPA methods.
