Instruments and Fees
Dual inlet instrument equipped with three peripherals for high precision analyses on carbonates, CO2, and water. This instrument is coupled to:
- Kiel III carbonate device
- 24 port manifold
- H2O/CO2 equilibrator
Used for high precision analysis of carbonate e.g., coral, forams, mollusks, gastropods, sediments, dolomite, enamel.
| Typical precision of measurement: | < 0.05 ‰ for O and < 0.03 o/oo for C |
| Time required for analysis: | 30 minutes for both O and C |
| Cost per analysis: | $10.00 |
Thermo Finnigan 24 Port Manifold
Used for high precision analysis of CO2 from any source.
| Typical precision of measurement: | < 0.05‰ for O and < 0.03 ‰ for C |
| Time required for analysis: | 20 minutes for both O and C |
| Cost per analysis: | $8.00 |
Used for high precision analysis of O in water via equilibration with CO2 and water. Water sample requires overnight equilibration with CO2 prior to analysis.
| Typical precision of measurement: | < 0.05 ‰ for O and C < 0.03 ‰ for C |
| Time required for analysis: | 20 minutes for both O and C |
| Cost per analysis: | 12.00 |
