The AMI-Micro 300 Series Series is a high-precision physisorption analyser designed for BET surface area, pore size, and micropore analysis of porous materials. With three independently operating analysis ports, the Micro 300 supports simultaneous gas adsorption testing with different adsorbate gases, making it well suited for MOFs, molecular sieves, catalysts, activated carbon, and other microporous materials.
The Micro 300 B and C models are equipped with a 1 torr or 0.1 torr high-sensitivity pressure transducers and a turbo molecular pump with an ultimate pressure of 10-8 Pa, ensuring precise measurements of microporous structures. Furthermore, all three analysis stations support in-situ sample preparation, minimizing the risk of contamination. This instrument is particularly well-suited for the characterisation of microporous materials, including MOFs, molecular sieves, catalysts, activated carbon, and other porous substances.
The internal gas path design of the instrument adopts a unique integrated metal module design,
which not only reduces the internal dead volume space but also lowers the system leakage rate.
An independent P0 pressure transducer is configured at 133 kPa for P0 value testing,
enabling real-time P/P0 measurement for more accurate and reliable test data.
Alternatively, an atmospheric pressure input method can be used to determine P0.
With independent analysis ports, the system employs a unique vacuum control logic that allows
each station to operate without disruption, even when using a single mechanical pump or pump group.
This enables simultaneous, independent experiments, meeting diverse adsorbent testing needs while
ensuring high efficiency.
A core rod in the sample tube reduces deadvolume and stabilizes the cold free space coefficient,
while an iso-thermal jacket maintains a constant thermal profile along the tube. Additionally,
automatic helium correction ensures precise calibration for any powder or particulate material,
minimizing temperature-related deviations during analysis.
Equipped with 1000 torr pressure transducers, the Meso Series enables precise physical adsorption
analysis, achieving a partial pressure (P/P0) as low as 10-2 for nitrogen
(N2) at 77 K.
This system features a multi-channel, adjustable, and parallel vacuum design with segmented vacuum control.
This setup effectively prevents samples from being drawn up into the analyser, therefore preventing manifold contamination.
The use of 1 L Dewar flasks in conjunction with a sealed cover ensures a stable thermal profile along the entire
length of both the sample tubes and P0 tubes throughout the testing process.
Equipped with four in-situ degassing ports, enabling simultaneous degassing and analysis. Each port offers
independent temperature control from ambient to 400°C, ensuring precise sample preparation.
PAS Software is an intelligent solution for operation control, data acquisition, calculation, analysis, and report generation on the Windows platform. It communicates with the host via the LAN port and can remotely control multiple instruments simultaneously.
PAS Software adopts a unique intake control method, optimizing pressure in the adsorption and desorption processes through a six-stage setting, which improves testing efficiency
Each adsorption equilibrium process is dynamically displayed on the test interface. Adsorption characteristics ofthe sample can be easily understood.
Changes in pressure and temperature inside the manifold can be directly observed in the test interface,providing convenience for sample testing and instrument maintenance. Current state of analyzer can be intuitively understood with the indicator light and event bar.
