The OCM6000 WAD Cyanide Analyser
The OCM6000 WAD Cyanide Analyser has been designed specifically for the gold mining industry and is based on the same operating platform as the highly successful OCM5000 analyser, including its filtration and sample handling systems. The OCM6000 incorporates innovative technology to measure Weak Acid Dissociable (WAD) cyanide using a micro-distillation unit (MDU) followed by a potentiometric titration. This technique of measurement is the preferred method of WAD cyanide analysis.
