Comparison of the Sievers 900 Series

and the Sievers M-Series TOC Analyzers
The following table shows key performance, design, and feature improvements in the Sievers M-Series TOC Analyzers, the next
generation of the Sievers 900 Analyzer. The three application-specific M-Series Analyzers (Laboratory, On-Line, and Portable) offer
unsurpassed ease of use, analytical performance, versatility, and reliability. They incorporate design improvements that draw upon
over a decade of GE Analytical Instruments leadership in TOC analysis and include enhancements most requested by customers.
