Continuous indication analyser
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-002496
An instrument that provides an uninterrupted, real-time output signal corresponding to the concentration of a specific substance in a continuously flowing sample stream. The analyser's detector responds dynamically to fluctuations in the analyte's concentration as the sample passes through. The time lag between a change in concentration at the instrument's inlet and the corresponding change in its reading is defined as the response time, which incorporates the dead time.
