    “high” cation conductivity indication, so removing the carbon dioxide becomes the final step in providing an accurate cation conductivity value. The new 9096 Degassed Cation Conductivity Analyzer from Waltron removes carbon dioxide using a desorption column. Using this method, 93.5% of the CO is removed in the 45 seconds the sample is in the desorption column.
