Why Choose SS600 Odour Laboratory
World's Most Advanced Dynamic Stationary Olfactory Lab
Each sample analysis round of six steps will take less than 3 minutes to complete. Hardware and software has been meticulously designed to minimize test time and sample consumption. It also perform any odour test mode you require including a true three port triangular forced choice as well as Binary, Yes/No, Hedonic tone, and Direct Presentation. Siemens control hardware and machine interface coupled with specialized stainless steel values, mass flow controllers, and regulatorsensures unprecedented reliability.
Features at a Glance
Fast and Efficient
With the world’s shortest sample processing time, the SS600 will allow you to complete seven samples per hour with three rounds and five dilution steps each
Cost-Effective
Smallest sample consumption of any olfactometer on the market. Typical 3 round analysis requires only one 10L sample. Save on sampling, shipping, cleaning, purging, etc.
International Standards
The SS600 adheres to all international standards including: EN13725:2022, ASTM E679-04, NVN2820, VDI 3881, GB/T14675-93, AS 4323.3
Upgrade Available
Ability to upgrade from the SS600 to the SS800 which features 8 total olfactory stations and the built in admin panel
High Accuracy
Uses high-accuracy mass flow controllers to monitor and adjust both sample air and the clean diluting air, ensuring an accurate dilution ratio regardless of variations in ambient pressure or temperature
Unparalleled Reliability
Siemens control hardware and machine interface coupled with specialized Stainless steel valves, mass flow controllers, and regulators ensures unprecedented reliability
Contamination Control
Contamination control is one of the most important aspects of an olfactometer. Without it, the operator must spend hours or days cleaning the olfactometer, purging it and hoping the odour will go away. An olfactometer not able to properly control the contamination from each sample can easily get 50 OU even on blank samples. This will not only affect accuracy of the lab but also its credibility.
Scentroid's Technology
The Scentroid SS600 uses the most advanced contamination control in the industry based on technologies IDES Canada developed for nuclear reactor refurbishment. The contamination control technology is so effective that laboratories in Europe, South America and Asia have completed more than 100,000 samples without having to purge more than 30 seconds. This purge is automatically run before each analysis by the SS600.
Pulse Jet Purging
An innovative technique of pushing air through the system at extremely high velocity while pulsing at 100 Hz. The pulsing action shakes the stainless steel tubes at a resonant frequency dislodging any contamination stuck to the surface, similar to an ultrasonic cleaner. Pulse purging is done with air in a reverse direction and with air directed to a special holding filter to ensure the contamination does not enter the laboratory.
Scentroid SS600 uses only polished stainless steel for all wetted surfaces. The 400 series stainless provides the highest degree of contamination resistance.
Case Study:
- An Italian Laboratory has completed more than 9000 samples with purge time of less than 30 seconds.
- Air Spectrum of UK opened a new laboratory using the Scentroid SS600 with capacity of 100 samples per day. The Speed of their SS600 allows them to price 50% below competition and still make the same profit.
- ALS laboratory in Hong Kong processes samples both from mainland China and from Hong Kong. Even though Chinese GB Boundary and GB Source odour standards are completely different from the EN13725 used in Hong Kong.
