MA-3 Solo was designed to be as simple to use as possible. Unlike other systems that require purified oxygen gas, purified air is used as the combustion and carrier gas. This design concept makes the instrument perfect for field portable operation or for use in mobile laboratories. The ceramic sample boats are easily cleaned for reuse. No gas requirement and reusable boats keep operating costs low.
The MA-3 Solo has successfully accredited to replace the SP-3D under UOP 938-20 revision.
