Add to compare

The Nova Series is a range of surface area and pore size analyzers based on vacuum volumetric gas adsorption technology. The system enables precise determination of specific surface area and pore size distribution using methods such as BET, BJH, DFT, NSA, STSA, and Langmuir. It supports high-throughput analysis with up to four simultaneous measurement stations and eight integrated degassing stations. The instrument features advanced dosing algorithms, helium-free measurement capability (NOVA mode), and high-accuracy pressure transducers. It includes an integrated touchscreen interface and Kaomi software for real-time monitoring, data processing, and reporting. The system operates with non-corrosive gases such as nitrogen, argon, and carbon dioxide, depending on the model, and is suitable for both quality control and research applications across various material types.

Use Cases

  • Surface area and pore analysis of carbon materials (activated carbon, graphite)
  • Characterization of pharmaceutical powders
  • Catalyst and metal oxide analysis
  • Battery material analysis (anodes, cathodes, separators)
  • Analysis of ceramics and mineral materials

Capabilities

  • Vacuum volumetric gas adsorption analysis
  • Multi-gas operation (N₂, Ar, CO₂, non-corrosive gases depending on model)
  • Simultaneous sample preparation and analysis
  • High-precision pressure measurement (0.1% FS)
  • Temperature-controlled degassing up to 425 °C
  • Automated data acquisition, processing, and reporting
