The Hiden CATLAB is a bench-top microreactor and combined mass spectrometer system for rapid and reproducible catalyst characterisation and reaction studies. The microreactor and mass spectrometer are delivered as a complete system from a single manufacturer, unique to the industry, ensuring optimum analysis via seamless hardware and software integration. The modular design further allows both instruments to operate as stand-alone components so that they may be interfaced with existing laboratory equipment such as TGAs or TCDs.

The Hiden CATLAB is a catalyst characterisation system designed to make the analysis of catalysts rapid and simple. CATLAB consists of two modules : Module 1: is the Microreactor including temperature and flow control. Module 2: is the QIC-20 Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer system, which can also be used as a stand-alone instrument.

Advanced real-time gas analysers for continuous sampling of processes and atmospheres near ambient pressure, all sharing a common system concept yet each expandable with the addition of application-specific accessories. Common baseline features include : Sample pressure range 2bar to 100mbar, Species molecular weight range to 200amu(option: 300amu), Compact benchtop system(option: mobile cart), Fast 300msec sampling response, Time/intensity trend monitoring of multiple species, Soft Ionisation Mode - simplified data presentation and interpretation, Sample consumption rates down to 1ml/min, Integration of external process data (temperature, weight, pressure).
