Abstract

This paper reports on the evaluation and testing of a home-made device. Data-acquisition, treatment of transient signals and the hardware and software involved are discussed. Some practical aspects are developed in order to power the autonomy of procedures using the device. Kinetic and multi-signal calculations are considered in order to cover the actual tendencies in continuous-flow analysis. Somepractical advantages versus the use of classical chart recorders or commercial computerized-instrument devices are pointed out.
