It is obvious that such a fully automatic system is a greater investment compared with a basic instrument, but the reward is in the money saved. As an example, for a customer doing 200 measurements per day, where 3 shifts are worked 24/7, the breakeven point comes only after 2 years. In this scenario the user will save more than $1 per analysis and after 10 years operation, will have saved more than $750,000 compared with a manual system including all consumables, maintenance, labor and investment.
