DMA 80: Advanced Direct Mercury Analysis for Accurate and Rapid Results

In industries where mercury detection is critical—such as environmental monitoring, food safety, pharmaceuticals, and petrochemicals—accuracy, speed, and compliance are non-negotiable. The Milestone DMA 80 stands out as a cutting-edge solution designed to deliver precise mercury analysis without the need for complex sample preparation.

What is Milestone DMA 80?

The Milestone DMA 80 is a direct mercury analyzer that uses thermal decomposition, amalgamation, and atomic absorption spectrophotometry to determine mercury content in solid, liquid, and gas samples.

Unlike traditional techniques, it eliminates the need for acid digestion, significantly reducing analysis time and operational complexity.


Key Features of Milestone DMA 80

1. Direct Analysis Without Sample Preparation

The DMA 80 allows direct mercury determination without chemical digestion. This minimizes human error, reduces chemical usage, and improves lab safety.

2. Fast and Accurate Results

With analysis times as low as 5 minutes per sample, the DMA 80 ensures high throughput while maintaining exceptional accuracy and reproducibility.

3. Wide Range of Sample Compatibility

It can analyze:

  • Environmental samples (soil, water, sludge)

  • Food products (fish, grains, oils)

  • Pharmaceutical materials

  • Petrochemical samples

4. Compliance with Global Standards

The system complies with major regulatory methods including:

  • EPA Method 7473

  • ASTM D6722

  • AOAC Official Methods

5. Minimal Maintenance & Cost Efficiency

With no need for reagents and minimal consumables, operational costs are significantly reduced.


How Does the DMA 80 Work?

The working principle of the Milestone DMA 80 involves three main steps:

  1. Thermal Decomposition – The sample is heated to release mercury

  2. Amalgamation – Mercury vapor is trapped on a gold amalgamator

  3. Detection – Mercury is quantified using atomic absorption spectrometry

This automated process ensures precision and repeatability across different sample types.
