Integrated NO / NOx- Analyzer for rotary smoking machines available
13.04.2010
Several of the nitric oxide compounds are toxic components of cigarette smoke. In that aspect it has been an essential element in the determination of smoke analysis. Although the analysis has initially been an element of the product development, at the present day it is increasingly integrated in the routine analysis.
This development is a sufficient enough reason for Borgwaldt KC to offer a NO/NOx-analysis-system that is custom-tailored for rotary smoke machines.
In contrast to the previous proprietary developments or „customized solutions“ of the past, BKC, in collaboration with a leading analyzer-manufacturer and several partner laboratories, has developed a uniform system that meets all of the requirements. The simple and sturdy construction, as well as the precision and quality customary to Borgwaldt KC were the key-features of this development.
The analysis system functions without additional smoke treatments such as dilutors or dosing units. It offers the option to determine the NO- and NOx amount in the mainstream smoke for each individual puff, each cigarette or the complete smoke run. The results are displayed in mg per puff, cigarette or run.
As a logical expansion of the product portfolio the rotary smoke machines RM20H and RM20D are initially available with this option. The RM20H is equipped with an integrated module while the desk top model RM20D features an external solution. Both options will be available effective in the summer of this year. All of the already delivered RM20D as well as all RM20H using touch screen operation may of course be upgraded without limitations.
