Dramatically Improved Productivity

Dramatically Improved Productivity with Simplified Maintenance and Automation Functions.

Easy Pyro-Tube Replacement Reliable and Effective Automation Functions are a First for the Industry

Shimadzu's unique horizontal redox cell makes it quicker to In comparison with other general GC detectors, SCD detectors have many units that
replace the inner pyro-tube. It is easy to access the inner must be controlled, and complicated procedures are necessary to prepare them for
pyro-tube and unnecessary to disassemble the redox cell. analysis. These procedures are usually performed manually. The Nexis SCD-2030 is
equipped with a wealth of automation functions, so preparations such as gas control,
temperature control, and conditioning can be finished with a single touch. When
combined with LabSolutions workstation software, the instrument can start up with
the optimal conditions at a specific date and time, and everything from system checks
Automatic Conditioning (Aging) Function Automatic Notifications to Replace to starting and finishing analysis to system shutdown can be performed automatically.
Consumables Automating the processes previously performed by an operator supports a more
Periodic conditioning (oxygen aging) of the pyro-tube is an efficient workflow, and can also prevent damage and degradation of detectors due to
effective way of maintaining high sensitivity. With the Nexis The system automatically monitors the number of times the human error.
