The Millennium Merlin series from PS Analytical are advanced laboratory mercury analysers built around atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS) with integrated vapour generation, delivering exceptional sensitivity (down to sub-ppt levels), accuracy and linearity across a wide range of sample types. These systems are designed to determine total mercury in liquids, solids and gaseous matrices — from drinking water, environmental samples and industrial effluents to biological tissues and petrochemical streams — with aed data capture and PC control for seamless workflow integration.
Standard Millennium Merlin (PSA 10.025): A versatile mercury analyser combining vapour generation and AFS for total Hg measurement in virtually any sample type, with broad method compliance and low detection limits ideal for environmental, food, clinical and industrial labs.
Millennium Merlin 1631 (PSA 10.035): Enhanced with a gold trap pre-concentration stage to meet EPA Method 1631 and similar ultra-trace requirements, especially for drinking water monitoring and regulatory compliance. It can quickly switch between standard and 1631 modes with minimal downtime.
All Millennium Merlin systems are controlled via Millennium software, which manages instrument settings, calibration, data capture and integration into lab networks, supporting GLP-ready reporting and efficient instrument use.
Environmental monitoring: Drinking water, surface water, groundwater and waste streams
Regulatory compliance: EPA 1631 and other global mercury methods
Food and biological analysis: Mercury in fish, hair, blood and other biota
Industrial and petrochemical testing: Mercury in process streams, fuels, condensates and effluents
Ultra-trace sensitivity: AFS with vapour generation achieves very low detection limits and excellent linear response.
Broad sample versatility: Suitable for water, soil, sediment, biological, industrial and petrochemical matrices.
Regulatory compliance: 1631 model conforms to strict EPA and ISO standards for mercury in water.
Flexible configuration: Can be adapted or coupled with speciation systems (e.g., HPLC) and autosamplers for expanded workflows.
