The BELSORP-max X sorption platform - a view of the analysis ports.

BELSORP max X - The high precision sorption analyser.

Engineered in Japan by Microtrac‑BEL BELSORP-max X gives the fastest, highest precision and most accurate sorption measurements on multiple samples.

The BELSORP family takes another leap to give the highest precision quantification of gas amounts, with the lowest possible contamination.

Just like its predecessor, the BELSORP-max-II, BELSORP-max X is perfectly adapted for:

High precision sorption analysis, isotherm measurement, hysteresis analysis
Surface area by traditional (BET) or advanced methods.
Nano-, micro- and meso-porosity analysis.
Low pressure micropore measurements.
Very low surface area and thin film analyses using krypton gas.

BELSORP-max X : “Don’t call me small!”

Advances in component technologies, and an extremely modular design, have allowed a large reduction in the footprint, without compromising any of the advances introduced to the market by previous versions of the ‘max’ :

Excellent vacuum and outgassing performance for low pressure measurements
The 50 °C thermostated gas manifold as standard
The Advanced Free Space Measurement (AFSM™) gives the flattest baseline and accuracy, even for long duration measurements
Very low starting pressure for ultramicropore and strongly interacting surfaces
In-situ high temperature degassing option, for best reproducibility. Also allows re-activation of sample for repeat testing. Complements our independent degassing units
Up to 90 hour autonomy at 77 K.

It all comes inside a footprint of just 36 cm × 59 cm for the base unit.

And of course, there are options and upgrades, as your needs develop…

Multiple temperature control devices available for different temperature regimes.
Fully automatic, unattended, degas + measurement.
Multiple software-selectable gas inputs (up to 12)
Offers simple upgrade path as your requirements change
Upgrades of analysis ports for low pressures
Vapour sorption option - with full condensation-protection.

Updated software

New unified software package for BELSORP-maxX and miniX.
Improved ease of use - item by item choice between automatic and customised configuration
Built-in self diagnostic tests to verify correct functioning

Separate BELMaster Data Analysis software runs independently on multiple computers. The comprehensive library of data analysis models includes all common traditional models for data analysis and treatment.

Surface area (single and multi-point B.E.T., Langmuir, STSA, t-plot, alpha-s, DR),
Pore size (BJH, DH, DA, MP, HK, SF) with their corresponding surface area values,
Heats of adsorption,
Fractal Dimension analysis
BELMaster also includes NLDFT, GCMC simulation for pore size fitting.
