Elemental Analyzer

LECO CN 628 an instrument which function is to analyze Nitrogen and Carbon

elements in Macro Samples using dry combustion method.
In this technique, a sample is burned in an excess of oxygen and various traps, collecting
the combustion products: carbon dioxide, water and nitric oxide. The masses of these
combustion products can be used to calculate the composition of the unknown sample.
 Instruments

Spectrometer

Analyze P2O5 total, Boron and Sulfur

 Instruments

Flame photometer

To determine the concentration of alkali and alkaline earth metals (sodium,

potassium, lithium, calcium, cesium, etc) in various samples.

in Soil Laboratory
 Technology Update
At the moment, Soil and Forest Nutrition Laboratory still use a manual
thermometer in the soil texture analysis process. Thermostatic Bath with
automatic temperature regulator will produce higher quality of the analysis
results and also easy to use.
