Features/ BenefitsTo ensure fuel quality, both the European Committee for Standardization (EN 14214) and ASTM International (ASTM D6751) have issued standard test criteria for biodiesel; these standards utilize multiple gas chromatographic analyses.
The PerkinElmer® EcoAnalytix™ Biodiesel Glycerin and Methanol Analyzer addresses this by providing a unique solution to test biodiesel using each of the GC test methods included in both the EN and ASTM standards. The Analyzer features the Clarus® 500 Gas Chromatograph (GC) with an innovative dual-oven design, coupled with a TurboMatrix™ Headspace Sampler (HS), for the analysis of both free and total glycerin (EN 14105, ASTM D6584) as well as residual methanol (EN 14110). The oven design allows laboratories to complete both GC analyses on a single instrument without the need to modify hardware setup – previously, either two GC instruments or modifications to hardware setup were necessary. This innovative solution allows two types of analyses on one instrument, increasing productivity while reducing instrument expense and optimizing bench space. - Two solutions in one
- No column swapping
- Reduced instrument expense
- Optimized bench space

Product detailsThe Analyzer is configured as follows:
- Clarus 500 GC with dual oven allows analysis of both free and total glycerin as well as residual methanol on a single instrument
- TurboMatrix HS-40 improves productivity and conforms with EN methodology
- TotalChrom® CDS instrument control and data-handling software
- Consumables package with calibration standards provides rapid ramp-up of sampling and analysis
- Standard operating procedures allow rapid setup of test procedures
- Specific installation and qualification procedures to get the application up and running
No additional hardware required to meet ASTM and EN regulations!
Complete integration of the Clarus 500 GC with a dual oven, TurboMatrix HS, calibration standards, operating procedures and an application CD makes the PerkinElmer EcoAnalytix Biodiesel Glycerin and Methanol Analyzer the perfect solution to meet the needs of EN14105, ASTM D6584 and EN14110 methods in a cost-effective and time-efficient manner.
