Curious about how to simplify ion chromatography and cut running costs?

Watch our live demo and Q&A to see how Metrohm’s Reagent-Free Ion Chromatography (IC) system is changing routine analysis.

Hear from Andrew Osborne (Metrohm), Patric Klein (Merck), and Bethany Campbell (ELGA LabWater) as they demonstrate how reagent-free operation, high-purity water, and quality reagents work together for consistent, reliable results with less effort.

See how this approach eliminates manual reagent handling, reduces maintenance, and lowers operating costs while improving data quality. Learn how pure water from ELGA and precision chemicals from Merck integrate perfectly with Metrohm’s system to make ion chromatography simpler and more sustainable.

  • Discover how reagent-free IC can reduce running costs by up to 95 %
  • Experience true ease of use with fewer manual steps and no chemical preparation
  • Ensure consistent, traceable results with ultra-pure water and optimised reagents
  • Get practical insights directly from Metrohm, Merck, and ELGA experts

Annual savings

graphic showing 5 year cost of RFIC

Reagent-free Ion Chromatograph from Metrohm costs approximately £175 per year, compared to an estimated £3,140 per year from other vendors. By choosing Metrohm, you benefit from the same proven performance while reducing annual costs by nearly 95%. The diagram on the left illustrates the substantial savings over a five-year period.

 

The set-up

930, 948, PURELAB® flex 3+ Ultrapure Water System

The 925 IC, an ion chromatography system that focuses on the essentials while not compromising on quality, robustness, and reliability. Whether you need to perform routine water analysis or you’re looking for an instrument for higher education, the 925 IC comes with all the components you need. In addition, you can also save time and reduce work by getting an automated system.

948 Continuous IC Module for automated inline preparation of eluents. You can connect an ultrapure water system (PURELAB® flex 3+ Ultrapure Water System) and your system is prepared for 24/7 analysis.

The Eco IC can be combined with an 863 Compact IC Autosampler complete with rack, vials, and caps. This allows you to analyse up to 36 samples fully automatically.

Systems

Eco IC

Eco IC

2.925.0020

Ion chromatography for everyone! The Eco IC is the entry into ion chromatography at a very affordable price. The instrument is particularly suitable for water analysis in routine operations and for training purposes at schools and universities. Included in the scope of delivery are the conductivity detector, the Metrohm Suppressor Module ("MSM") and the software. Later automation for up to 36 samples and the use of Inline Ultrafiltration are possible at any time.

Eco IC Package

Eco IC Package
