● BET repeatability of ≤ +1.0% ensures high accuracy and reproducibility.

Product Overview

Introduction

The AMI-Sync Series is a fully automated, high-performance line of gas physisorption analyzers designed for rapid and accurate surface area and pore size characterization of porous and non-porous materials. Whether analyzing catalysts, zeolites, MOFs, or advanced battery materials, the AMI-Sync Series delivers robust vacuum-volumetric measurement systems backed by intuitive software and comprehensive support for both standard and advanced adsorption techniques.

Available in flexible 1-, 2-, or 4-station configurations, the AMI-Sync Series features a common P₀ measuring transducer and supports simultaneous saturation vapor pressure measurements. Each unit is built for high-throughput performance, with options for a dedicated pressure transducer per station to maximize speed, or a shared sensor setup for cost efficiency. A single large-volume dewar supports multiple stations simultaneously, offering an ideal solution for space-conscious laboratories with demanding workloads.

Features

Customizable Configuration for Throughput Analysis Needs

The AMI-Sync series offers a scalable solution with up to four high-resolution measurement stations for precise pore size and surface area analysis. For increased throughput, additional instruments can be linked via LAN, expanding to 12 analysis ports with centralized and remote-control capabilities.

Extended Analysis Duration

AMI-Sync analyzers are equipped with large 3-liter Dewar flasks that allow over 90 hours of continuous analysis. The system supports live refilling during experiments, ensuring uninterrupted data collection during long runs and complex isotherm acquisitions.

High Sensitivity & Reproducibility

The AMI-Sync Series delivers precise and reliable surface area and porosity data, with a BET detection limit as low as 0.1 m² absolute and 0.01 m²/g specific. It offers outstanding reproducibility—within 1% on standard reference materials like BAM P115—ensuring confidence in repeated analyses.

Precision-Engineered Hardware

Built with stainless steel and vacuum-brazed manifolds, the system features ultra-durable bellows valves rated for over 5 million cycles. Temperature control maintains ±0.05 °C stability, while 32-bit pressure sensors provide high-resolution, accurate data capture.

Cryo TuneTM (Optional Feature)

Unlock advanced temperature control with Cryo TuneTM, an optional low-temperature cold bath system designed for precision adsorption studies. Fully integrated with Sync software, Cryo TuneTM allows users to effortlessly conduct adsorption isotherm measurements across a range of temperatures.

Optimized Manifold Contamination Control

A two-step filtration system protects the manifold from particulates reducing contamination risks and extending instrument life. Combined with stainless steel construction and high-cycle bellows valves, the system ensures clean, reliable operation even in high-throughput environments.

Compact & Lab-Ready

All models share a compact footprint of 51 ×53 × 93 cm, making them ideal for space-conscious labs. Despite their compact size, Sync analyzers are fully equipped for both research-grade and industrial applications, offering power, durability, and precision in one system.

Software

Sync Series analyzers are driven by a multilingual, user-friendly software suite that supports:

• Control of up to 8 instruments from a single PC
• Built-in method libraries
 for fast setup and repeatability
• Customizable analysis profiles with real-time system feedback
• Automated leak detection and guided maintenance routines
