Product overview
The BWB XP Plus is derived from the XP and combines it with functions taken from BWB's industry-specific instruments. It measures and displays sodium, potassium, lithium and calcium simultaneously, so switching between analytes needs no filter change or recalibration.
Its key addition is the Internal Reference System (IRS): either caesium or lithium can be used as an internal standard that compensates for small drifts during calibration and measurement, which helps reproducibility in demanding matrices.
Like the XP it includes a built-in air compressor, solutions and labware, a large LCD, USB data transfer to the FP-PC software, an analogue output with optional 4-20 mA, and an optional integrated printer. Web-based IQ/OQ/PQ certification is available.
