Laboratory instruments and analytical systems are quite regularly replaced by new ones.
Reason for that is usually not that they are no longer operational, but because there are more modern systems available with more up to date capabilities or capacity. In most cases, the old analyzers are traded in with the promise of a discount. However this discount would have been granted anyway. The returned systems will quite likely be scrapped or used as spare parts. However, generally it concerns instruments that were still working very well, due to excellent maintenance. In large parts of the world these analyzers are really desired and very useful. Laboratories in these areas do not have the funds to buy new systems.
