FIAlab FIAlyzer-FLEX
The FIAlyzer-FLEX flow injection analyzer is a reliable and efficient solution for laboratories looking to measure a wide range of parameters in drinking water, wastewater, and other liquid samples. Flow injection analysis offer a simple, reliable, and fast way of analyzing samples in the lab.
Some of the more common analytes include ortho-phosphates (OP), total phosphorus (TP), nitrate (NO3), nitrate + nitrite (NOx), nitrite (NO2), total nitrogen (TN), total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), and ammonia (NH3). For a complete list of analytes, please see our Method List.
Our methods are compliant with USEPA, APHA (Standard Methods), and ISO reference methods.
The FIAlyzer-FLEX has a modular design, whereby the instruments can be combined into a 1-4 channel system with a combination of methods. This allows laboratories that need to analyze one set of samples for several analytes to do so in one run; conversely, a lab that is focused on a single parameter or prefers a dedicated system for each parameter can select a single-channel option.
The system is controlled by FIAsoft, our state-of-the-art control software, which is written by our in-house software team and receives regular updates. FIAsoft allows for easy sample import, data export, and LIMS integration, and is compatible with Windows 10/11.
FIAlyzer-FLEX or FIAlyzer-1000
FIAlab offers two flow injection analyzers, the FLEX and the 1000. Each is well-suited for certain applications. The FIAlyzer-FLEX is ideal in the following situations:
A single channel is going to be frequently changed between several different methods
In-line methods are going to be run – these are well-suited for the FLEX, which provides the additional space for tubing and pump capacity to accommodate the additional reagent lines
The FIAlyzer-FLEX is aptly named – its flexibility allows method switchover to happen quickly and easily. FIAlab has the unique “universal manifold” concept, a design in which most of the setup between methods is identical. Additionally, FIAlab is the only flow analyzer manufacturer that uses a spectrometer instead of a photodiode, which means wavelength selection is all done through the software and there is no need for a wavelength-selection filter. Between these two aspects, switching the FIAlyzer-FLEX from one assay to another is a quick and simple matter.
