What Types of Automated Analyzers Does Skalar Offer?

Skalar offers automated analyzers built around two main platforms: the SAN++® continuous flow analyzer series (Compact, Classic and Advanced) for fully automatic colorimetric analysis, and the BLUVISION® discrete analyzer for automated, contamination-free and flexible testing. The lineup also includes TOC/TNb analysis (IGNIVIUS) and serves environmental, pharmaceutical, agricultural, detergent, chemical and food & beverage laboratories. The right choice depends on your sample volume, the parameters you measure and whether you prefer continuous flow or discrete analysis.

SAN++® Continuous Flow Analyzers

The SAN++® series is Skalar's continuous flow analyzer range, described as providing fully automatic and accurate colorimetric analysis and incorporating the latest technologies. It comes in three configurations:

Skalar publishes a dedicated SAN++® Series guide for readers who want to compare the three models in detail. Continuous flow analysis is the established approach for running routine colorimetric determinations at high throughput, which is why Skalar frames the series around routine laboratory automation.

BLUVISION® Discrete Analyzer

BLUVISION® is Skalar's discrete analysis platform. Skalar's eBook on the system describes it as enabling automated, contamination-free and flexible testing for water, soil and environmental applications, with the goal of helping laboratories work faster and more accurately. If your workload mixes many parameters and changing test menus rather than long runs of the same determination, discrete analysis is the category to examine first.

TOC/TNb Analysis (IGNIVIUS)

Skalar also promotes TOC/TNb analysis through IGNIVIUS, including a dedicated webinar on the topic. This is a separate application area from colorimetric and discrete chemistry testing, so confirm that the parameters you need are covered before shortlisting it.

Matching an Analyzer to Your Application

Skalar provides an analyzer selector on its site: you choose your application and parameter, or select a technology, and the tool returns the matching analyzer. This is the fastest way to narrow the range without reading every product page.

A practical sequence:

1. List the parameters you measure routinely and the sample matrices (for example water, soil or nutrients).
2. Enter the application and parameter into the analyzer selector.
3. Compare the suggested platform against your throughput and menu-flexibility needs — continuous flow for established routine colorimetric work, discrete analysis for flexible, contamination-free testing.
4. Request application support or a quote through Skalar's contact page, since pricing is not published on the site.

Who the Analyzers Are For

Skalar describes its industrial analyzers as reliable and economical solutions for automation in modern routine laboratories, with applications in environmental, pharmaceutical, agricultural, detergent, chemical and food & beverage testing, focused on routine analyses such as water, soil and nutrient testing. The company was established in 1965 and supports users through subsidiaries in most European countries, North America and India, plus over eighty representatives worldwide — relevant if local service and application support matter to your purchasing decision.
