Design
Chromatograph is fully automated, starting from injection of a sample and ending with processing of chromatograph information, at that number — functions of automatic control the thermostat temperature, gas-carrier consumption and pressure of auxiliary gases, detector automatic lighting, flame burning control, measuring the signals from detectors with 24—digit ADC.
One computer can work in real time with several analytical modules up to 8, besides, control the operation and process the chromatography signals «Crystall—2000», «Crystallux—4000», process the chromatograph signals through other marks through ADC. Information transfer between computer, analytical station, and chromatographs are performed by the standard interface RS-232, USB. There are control desk of chromatograph on base of microcomputer Pocket PC. Control of chromatograph is possible from the distance up to 3000 m, and also remote control and diagnostics of the chromatograph via the Internet.

Replaceable modules
Replaceable analytical module, installed on the column thermostat, determines the chromatograph model and includes detectors (multidetector), injectors and additional devices. The module configuration can be chosen by the customer for the certain analysis conditions.

Module FID/FID
Module TCD(TCD/TCD)
Module FID/TCD (FID/TCD/TCD)
Module ECD/TID (FID/ECD/TID)
Module PID (PID/ECD, PID/FID)
Module FID/ECD/NPD (FID/NPD)
The modules include two (three) injectors, which can be transformed from capillary into packed type by installing special adapters. On the customer request we can supply module with any detector set and sample input devices: PID/TCD, FID/ECD/PID, TCD/FPD, TCD/TCD/FPD, FID/FID/ECD, FID/ECD/ECD, FID/FID/TCD, HID, FID/FID/FID, TCD/TChD etc.).

Replaceable analytical devices:
Research and production company “Meta-chrom” provides setup and installation, staff training, mounting of gas-chromatography laboratories, service, implementation of methods, modernization of chromatographs “Crystall-2000”, “Crystallux-4000” by increasing of sensitivity, stability and reliability of operation.

Chromatograph could be supplied in set with add-on analytical devices by customer request:
