AOX-400

Automatic Organic Halogen Analyzer

High-Performance AOX / EOX Analysis for Environmental & Industrial Applications

The Nittoseiko AOX-400 is a next-generation automatic organic halogen analyzer designed for fast, precise, and environmentally responsible determination of AOX, EOX, and TOX in water, sludge, wastewater, and soil. Using advanced oxidative pyrolysis and coulometric detection, the AOX-400 quantifies organically bound halogens (Cl, Br, I) with outstanding sensitivity and operational efficiency.

Its open-top furnace design, automated gas control, and flexible sample introduction system make it uniquely capable of handling both solid AOX samples and liquid EOX samples with ease—delivering reliability for environmental labs, industrial QC, research institutions, and regulatory monitoring facilities.

Key Features & Advantages

1. High Throughput – 30% Faster

Optimized furnace and gas-flow control enable measurements within 10 minutes, significantly improving productivity over previous models.

🔄 2. Flexible 3-Mode Sample Introduction

Easily switch between three standard injection methods:

  • Column Method (extrusion injection) for AOX in water
  • Shaking Method (drop frit) for AOX in sludge/sediment
  • Syringe Injection for liquid EOX samples

This flexibility reduces operational complexity and supports diverse matrices.

🛠️ 3. Easy Maintenance

  • Unique open-top furnace for immediate access
  • Redesigned pyrolysis tube structure
  • Turntable slide mechanism for smooth sample handling

Daily maintenance is simple and fast.

💡 4. Compact Footprint

With dimensions of only 46 × 42 cm, the AOX-400 fits efficiently into any laboratory workflow.

🖥️ 5. Intuitive Software

User-friendly interface with:

  • Navigation bar
  • Shortcut buttons
  • Easy method setup and data management

Suitable for both routine QC operators and expert analysts.
