G4 ICARUS – High Performance Carbon & Sulfur Analyzer

For rapid and precise Carbon and Sulfur analysis -even at ppm levels- the automatic analyzer G4 ICARUS CS HF proves highly effective, especially with metallic materials. The solid sample, placed in a ceramic crucible, is combusted in a high-frequency furnace in an oxygen stream. The power of the HF furnace is adjustable in order to achieve optimum combustion. The resulting reaction gases CO₂ and SO₂ are measured by solid-state IR detectors of maximum selectivity and sensitivity. The system is characterized by an easy operation and automatic evaluation by means of an external PC.

The Application

The G4 ICARUS CS HF is suitable for the rapid determination of carbon and sulfur in many different kinds of material, e.g. steel, iron, alloys, non-ferrous metals, aluminum, titanium and alloys, zirconium and alloys, ores, ceramics, cement, limestone, and many more.

The Software

The analysis software of the G4 ICARUS CS HF is clear and simply structured. All tasks to be performed by the software are clearly divided into four different screens.
