The Nova series from Anton has been specifically developed to offer operational simplicity and velocity – speed in the unwavering direction of accuracy – throughout the complete analysis process.
The DSA 5000 M consists of four degassing stations and also up to four analysis stations, and thus provides four 5-point BETs in 20 mins, with 2% reproducibility. Users can follow the analysis workflow to learn how Nova offers peerless advantages right from start to finish and sets a new standard in surface area and pore characterization.
