I am looking for the pros and cons regarding this instrument. Ease of use, reliability, potential maintenance issues. Please describe your overall experience.
It seems a very simplified adsorption apparatus, which uses flow method instead the the (standard) volumetric method. I could not find which is the minimum adsorption relative pressure (for N2, say) you can measure, but I think is not too low. This is not good in microporous materials such as activated carbons, since most adsorption will occur at very low pressures; then you will miss a lot of information about the porosity of your samples.
I can just consider it is an industrial/high throughput adsorption apparatus which might not be the best for research.
Let's see if other people can provide more information/experiences to complement my quick opinion.
