2, 4, 8 and 16 -channel recorders: e-corder 201, e-corder 401, e-corder 821, e-corder 1621

e-corder units are used for the collection, display and analysis of signals from many types of laboratory instruments. They connect to Windows and Macintosh computers via USB, and are supplied with Chart and Scope software. Request price information.

Unlike many specialist data acquisition systems, e-corder can be used to collect data from completely different types of sources on different channels (e.g. pH, oxygen concentration, and temperature) because channel sensitivity and filtering is independently adjustable.

Replace your chart recorder, XY plotter, or oscilloscope (to 200 kHz), with e-corder to get the benefits of the latest generation of computer technology in your laboratory.

Typical instruments used with e-corder units include:

• photometers and colorimeters
• pH and ion meters
  
• dO2 meters
• temperature monitors
  
• accelerometers and vibration sensors
  
• load cells
  
• pressure, force and displacement transducers
  
• calorimeters
  
• stopped-flow and other kinetics systems
  
• potentiostats and galvanostats (see also EChem software)
  
• chromatographs (see also PowerChrom software)

e-corder can be used with most devices supplying an analog voltage signal up to ¡Ó10 V.

ER 280 and ER 285 PowerChrom Systems

PowerChrom systems are used for the collection, display and analysis of chromatographic data. The PowerChrom 280 System comprises PowerChrom software and a PowerChrom 280 hardware unit, and runs on Windows and Macintosh operating systems. The PowerChrom 285 System is fitted with an internal PC with Windows XP Professional and PowerChrom software pre-installed on its hard drive.

• Turns a PC or Mac, into a chromatography data workstation
  
• No programming required - just plug and play
  
• Collect signals from one or two detectors
  
• Up to 24 bit resolution
  
• Independently selectable input gains ¡Ó2 mV to ¡Ó10 V
  
• Digital signal processing gives superior signal-to-noise ratio
  
• TTL or contact closure for triggering autosamplers etc. (PowerChrom 280 system)
  
• USB 2.0 and 1.1 compliant
  
• PowerChrom software is also sold separately for use with e-corder 201 or 401 data recording systems.

Update Your Chromatograph
PowerChrom is the ideal data acquisition system for upgrading your GC or HPLC. Replace paper recorders, integrators, and DOS-based systems, and work with the latest generation of computing technology.

Automatic or manual operation is possible (depending on you chromatograph configuration). Autosamplers and fraction collectors can be triggered with contact closure or TTL signals. Multi-run experiments are controlled via sequence documents.

GLP
PowerChrom is designed to help you with good laboratory practice:

• All runs are date and time stamped
  
• Methods used for data collection and analysis are recorded
  
• Extensive annotation facilities store observations, and keep track of sample numbers etc
  
• Data is saved to hard disk every thirty seconds, and can be recovered in the event of a power outage
  
• All information (methods, calibrations, peak reports, as well as raw data) is stored in the one convenient data file, which can contain up to 999 runs!
  
• Files can be transferred between Windows and Macintosh computers
  
• All intermediate versions of calibration tables can be accessed
  
• Export Friendly
  
• You can export raw chromatograms (as graphics or tabular data), peak reports, and method and sequence tables, to other graphing software, word processors, and spreadsheets.

Manual Peak Editing
For difficult peaks, when adjusting automatic thresholds becomes time consuming, just use manual peak editing to add, delete, skim or otherwise directly edit a peak - just point and click!

Calibration Response Functions
Calibration curves can be fitted with linear, quadratic or even point-to-point (linear interpolation) response functions.

Sequences for Automation
Sequence documents can be used to automate a series of runs when used with a suitable autosampler. (PowerChrom 280 system).

Digital Signal Processing
PowerChrom oversamples the signal then averages the readings for each data point gathered, giving enhanced signal-to-noise ratios. Also, at recording speeds of 40 /s or less, the signal is averaged over whole mains cycles (50 or 60 Hz mains power), which eliminates the effects of mains hum. Thus you always get the highest quality data possible from your detectors.

• Software-controlled Preamplifiers (eDAQ Amps and eDAQ Pods).
  
• Transducers and Accessories (electrodes, transducers, probes, switches, cables)
  
• Data acquisition Software (Chart, Scope, EChem, PowerChrom, Chart extensions).
