881 Compact IC pro and 882 Compact IC plus −the compact solution for routine analysis02Metrohm’s intelligent ion chromatography sets standardsregarding ease of use and precision of results. It is availablein our Professional IC instruments, and in our CompactIC series. Hence, features such as iPump, iDetectorand iColumn technology are standard in all 881 and 882Compact IC instruments. These features guarantee superioranalytical precision and eliminate virtually all operatorerrors. The Compact IC instruments are operated by theMagIC Net TM chro matography software that controls allsystem components and monitors all relevant parameters.The highly versatile 881 Compact IC pro and the 882Compact IC plus are aimed at users from all industries tomeet their particular demands in routine analysis. Theseinstruments ensure the accurate and reliable determinationof anions, cations and polar substances in the partsper billion (ppb) to the percent (%) range. Moreover, theCompact IC range can be equipped with Inline Eluent Preparationproviding automated, fast and error-free eluentpreparation.Depending on the application, the 881 and 882 CompactIC can also be retrofitted with gradients, different columndimensions, inline sample preparation techniques and thepatented 800 Dosino, e.g. for regenerating of the chemicalsuppressor. Thus you are able to put together the rightsystem to meet your particular requirements.

04ApplicationsMetrohm’s Compact IC instruments have revolutionizedion chromatography applications. They now dominate inroutine water and environmental analysis involving drinking,surface and ground water as well as effluents. However,the 881 Compact IC pro and 882 Compact IC pluswere developed not just for these fields. Because of theirhigh level of reliability they are being used more andmore in the pharmaceutical industry.Moreover, the flexibility of the Compact IC instrumentsmeans they are widely deployed in the chemical and thefood industry. Small and medium-sized analytical laboratoriesbenefit from these instruments’ excellent priceperformanceratio. The high sensitivity of the CompactICs allow for their operation in the energy sector, wherewe have recently seen a significant widening in the scopeof application. In addition to the classical analyses in thepetrochemical and power plant area, the Compact ICsare also being used increasingly in the analysis of alternativefuels such as bioethanol and biodiesel.

Automation and inline sample preparationThe 881 and 882 Compact ICs can be fully automated,saving time and money. The 858 Professional SamplePro cessor, the 919 IC Autosampler plus, the 863 CompactIC Autosampler (shown here), the 889 IC Sample Center,the 814 USB Sample Processor or the 815 Robotic USBSample Processor XL can be used as sample changers.05MISP – Metrohm Inline Sample Preparation – coupledwith the Compact ICs provide a unique sample preparationcapability. Time-consuming manual steps can befully automated with e.g. Inline Ultrafiltration, Inline Dilution,Inline Dialysis or Metrohm Intelligent Partial-LoopTech nique (MiPT).Do you wish to perform anion and cation determinationsdown to the lower ppb range, in parallel and independentlyof each other? By combining two compact instrumentsand one sample changer you get an automatedanalysis system that processes large numbers of widelydifferent samples – round the clock!

1 HousingOne of the characteristic features of the 881 and 882 ion chromatographs is theircompact, space-saving design. Nonetheless, all components are clearly arranged andeasy to access. The complete flow path is metal-free and preinstalled. The transparentdoor allows for visual monitoring even during analysis.072 Eluent FlowThe iPump is a central element of the Compact IC series. Its extremely low pulsationtranslates into low noise and maximum sensitivity of the system. In addition, all CompactIC instruments are equipped with purge valve, inline filter and pulsation absorber.Should your application require a gradient, Dosino gradient technology enables implementationof binary, ternary, quaternary and quinary gradients.3 SeparationiColumn, the analytical separation column, is the heart of every application. iColumntechnology allows monitoring of this critical component. The system knows the optimalchromatographic conditions and prevents damage that can result from operatorerror. Complete traceability is guaranteed. Depending on the application, users canselect columns with different basic materials, selectivities, capacities and dimensions.Apart from columns with an internal diameter of 4 mm, it is also possible to use 2 mmcolumns to reduce eluent consumption.4 TemperatureApplications can be optimized by varying the temperature of the separation column.The 881 Compact IC pro is equipped with a column heater that can heat the eluentand column up to 70 °C. The thermally insulated column compartment of the 882Compact IC plus provides reliable protection from external influences.5 SuppressionSequential or chemical suppression – thanks to the low background noise level, bothfacilitate very sensitive analyses. At < 0.2 nS/cm, both have the lowest noise level ofall commercially available suppressors. This guarantees limits of detection in the 1 ppbrange. The Metrohm suppressors are extremely robust, solvent- and pressure-resistant.That is why the chemical suppressors come with an unrivalled 10-year warranty.6 DetectionConductivity is the most frequently used method of detection in IC. Apart from that,UV/VIS, amperometric and mass-spectrometric detection methods are used. The in ­telligent conductivity detector iDetector transmits the analytical signal to the MagICNet TM software directly and without any interference thanks to Digital Signal Pro cessing(DSP). The large measuring range of the iDetector of 0...15’000 μS/cm ensurescorrect and precise results from the trace to the percent range within one analysis.

MagIC Net TM08The MagIC Net TM chromatography software controls theinstruments in the Compact IC family and processes themeasuring data. All three software versions – Multi, Professionaland Compact – excel by their clear symbols,well­organized layout and intuitive operation. But that‘snot all: MagIC Net TM also manages system control plusdata management and offers many possibilities for makingthe analyses both easy and reliable.
