- Optimize BET surface area, pore size, and volume analysis
- Boost throughput with 4 analyses, and up to 8 degassing stations
- Analyze 4 BETs in 20 minutes, 4 isotherms in 8 hours
- Achieve 2 % reproducibility with ≥2 m2 measurement surface area
- Simplify the analysis process with built-in profiles
The Nova BET surface area analyzers have set a new benchmark in surface area and pore size analysis.
Up to eight degassing stations plus up to four analysis stations let you degas samples while analyzing others. Analyze four 5-point BETs in approximately 20 minutes, with 2 % reproducibility. Automated degassing means no operator intervention is necessary.
Simple. Precise. Fast. Nova.
Key features
Integrated sample preparation simplifies your process
Eliminate the clutter, cost, and complexity of external degassing devices with eight integrated degassing stations and up to four analysis stations in one space-saving design. Prepare a range of samples within a vacuum or for flow degassing at temperatures up to 425 ºC. Degassing is software programable and linked with an individual sample ID, ensuring full traceability. These integrated degassing stations ensure that samples are fully prepared before analysis with the BET surface area analyzer.
Speed up your surface area and pore size analysis, and save costs
Utilize the Nova Mode. Use pre-calibrated sample cells – no need to measure void volumes before every analysis – and accelerate your analyses while maintaining a high level of measurement precision.
Benefit from the Nova Nitro ReGen concept: Channel the pure nitrogen gas evaporating from its Dewar to the instrument to use in experiments. This eliminates cylinders and simplifies setup while delivering accurate, repeatable BET results, and reduces environmental impact and lab costs.
Nova Degassing Accessory can degas your samples using vacuum or flow degassing. This offers users flexibility and cost savings as they don’t have to buy multiple degassers.
TruZone – active coolant level control
With TruZone, create and maintain a small cold zone on the sample cell and maximize the measurement sensitivity of your surface area and pore size analyzer. Increase sensitivity when measuring gas molecules that are adsorbed by the sample results in exceptional measurement performance. Nova BET surface area analyzers deliver better than 2 % reproducibility with as low as 2 m2 total surface area in the sample cell. This best-in-class performance lets you measure materials with specific surface areas as low as 0.01 m²/g.
Suite of smart dosing algorithms for effortless method creation
Intelligent dosing algorithms, such as DoseWizard, VectorDose, and Initial Fill, simplify the creation of analysis profiles to accelerate analyses without sacrificing precision. In combination with the 20+ built-in analysis profiles for standardized methods like ASTM, ISO, USP, and DIN, our surface area and pore size analyzer delivers operational simplicity from start to finish.
A surface area and pore size analyzer with smart software
Combine instrument control and data processing with Kaomi for Nova. Set up and perform analyses, and process, report, and store data easily. Control up to four Nova BET surface area analyzers from one PC.
21 CFR Part 11-compliant software
Enhance data integrity for the pharmaceutical industry with Kaomi for Nova 21 CFR Part 11 Software (user management, audit trail, customizable reporting, and electronic signature).
This guarantees that your BET surface area analyzer meets FDA’s 21 CFR Part 11 requirements, ensuring complete data traceability and security, backed by a comprehensive pharma qualification and requalification package.
