    摘要: The present invention relates to a system and a method for dynamically scheduling maintenance operations based on real time performance data collected from individual components of an in-situ fluid analysis system. Furthermore, the monitoring system of the present invention is configured to dynamically adjust the operation of components of the fluid analysis apparatus in order to prolong the usability/lifespan of the corresponding components or deployment time of the fluid analysis apparatus in the field, based on the real-time performance data. The monitoring system of the present invention comprises a processing unit which is configured to receive and process data generated from an operation monitoring unit and a sensor unit within the fluidic analyser. Data is generated from a set of monitored components of the fluid analysis apparatus which is used to determine corresponding operational performance values. The processing unit, by means of a prognostic module, is configured to determine a remaining number of operational cycles for each monitored component for the corresponding fluid analysis apparatus; which is communicated to at least one or more remote electronic devices.

    摘要: The present invention provides a portable in situ Ion Chromatography system (100) for detecting inorganic analytes in water samples obtained from freshwater and marine aquatic environments. The system (100) of the present invention is provided with an optical detection system (110), which is configured to be dynamically operated, based on the salinity level of the water-based sample, between a marine analysis mode for analysing water-based samples having a salinity level within a first threshold value range, where in the marine analysis mode the second optical analyser module is activated such that the water-based sample exiting the first optical analyser module is directed for further analysis to the second optical analyser module, and a freshwater analysis mode for analysing water-based samples having a salinity level within a second threshold value range, where in the second analysis mode the second optical analyser is deactivated and the water-based sample exiting the first optical analyser module is directed to waste.
