Ion chromatography system The IonQuest ion chromatography system is suitable for analysing complex samples, such as primary potable waters, finished waters, effluent waters, processing fluids, blood plasma, pharmaceuticals, foods and beverages, semiconductor processing fluids, etc. The product enables anions and cations, such as fluoride, chloride, bromide, cyanide, arsenic species, organic acids, sodium, potassium, calcium, caesium and magnesium, to be detected with ease. Features include ultralow noise and drift, regenerative anion suppression, modularity, 21 CFR Part 11 compliance PowerStream software and biocompatibility, all of which ensure the system will accommodate current and future requirements. The software is easy to use and there are no limits on the choice of eluents, columns, pumps, sample pretreatment, samples, column conditions and detectors.

motor speed capability of up to 100,000 rpm on very low 3, 6 and 12 V winding options. There is also the possibility to customise the company’s coreless winding to suit the desired speed range. The 6 mm diameter planetary gearhead can reduce the speed and increase the torque of the motor by up to 854 times. The motor is fitted with a hall sensor network for feedback that gives

a state change every 60°. Considering both the speed of the motor and the increased resolution from the gearbox reduction, this equates to high-resolution control over the motor. Fitted with multiple stainless steel ball bearings, the motor and gearhead offer high radial and axial load levels and the motor preloading controls excessive resonance at such high speeds. The winding constants and the gearhead ratios must be carefully considered to best suit the application. maxon motor Australia Pty Ltd www.maxonmotor.com.au
