Respirometer ECHO ER series
Manufacturer: ECHO Instruments
Short description: Continuous respirometric measuring system for determining the aerobic or anaerobic biodegradability of solid or liquid samples in various test media for up to 36 measuring stations/places.
Application: The respirometer can be used for all types of respirometric tests such as OECD degradability tests, soil respiration and biogas tests.
| Technical Data | |
| Measuring principle | The respirometer continuously measures the O2 and CO2 concentration in the gas flowing through the sample under controlled conditions. Additional gases, such as methane, can also be measured. |
| Measuring environment | Aerobic/anaerobic, aquatic media and soil respiration |
| Measuring Period | Unlimited |
| Temperature range | 5 to 70 °C |
| Standards | ISO 14852, ISO 14855-1, ASTM D 5338, ASTM D6691, OECD 301B, OECD 301C |
Funded by the ‘European Regional Development Fund (EFRE) as part of the Union's response to the COVID-19 pandemic’ and with the participation of the state of Lower Saxony for the project with the acronym ‘SkalAb’ (Multi-scale analysis of aquatic degradation mechanisms of polymer materials).
