Metrohm ECO IC Ion Chromatograph Technical Overview

Core Technological Innovations

As Metrohm's next-generation intelligent IC system, the ECO IC series incorporates three revolutionary technologies:

1. Eco Energy-Saving Technology

   • Intelligent flow control (0.01-10 mL/min) reduces eluent consumption by 60%
   • <30W standby power (75% more efficient than conventional models)

2. Modular Design

   • Plug-and-play detectors (conductivity/amperometric/UV selectable)
   • Patented MSM suppressor with 2+ year lifespan (vs 6-12 months industry standard)

3. Smart Connectivity

   • MagIC Net™ cloud data management
   • Remote diagnostics reduce troubleshooting time by 90%

Industry Application Performance

Secondary Market Valuation

1. Value Determinants

   • Configuration: Base model (¥120k) vs Advanced (with amperometric detector, ¥250k)
   • Critical component status: Suppressor current >50mA increases value by 30%

2. Inspection Criteria
   ✓ Pump pressure stability (<0.1 MPa fluctuation)
   ✓ Baseline noise (<1 nS/cm)
   ✓ Column efficiency (>5,000 plates/meter)

3. Value-Added Refurbishment

   • Piston seal replacement (recommended after 5,000 injections)
   • IC Net 3.0 software upgrade (adds FDA compliance module)

Local Service Advantages

1. Response Time

   • 4-hour onsite support in tier-1 cities (vs 48-hour import brand average)

2. Consumable Cost Comparison

   Consumable	OEM Price	Domestic Alternative
   Suppressor	¥8,000	¥3,500 (80% lifespan)
   Column	¥12,000	¥4,800 (equivalent efficiency)
