The development of Continuous Flow carrier gas assisted techniques has dominated the growth of Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry for the last two decades. The ConFlo IV allows for the simultaneous attachment of multiple sample preparation devices with different carrier gas flow regimes to the same Isotope Ratio MS.
The new features of the ConFlo IV include intelligent connection to all necessary reference gases, automatic sample-size recognition with smartEA, sample and reference signal matching and self-diagnosis. It takes significant steps towards full automation of the stable isotope laboratory, maximizing system utilization and uptime.
