For parts-per-trillion level detectability

Part Number:
Description:
Continuous Flow Hydride/Cold Vapor System

Overview

The Model-420 is an easily adaptable accessory for Flame AA Spectrophotometers that allows PPT detectability for As, Se, Sb, Sn, Te, Bi and Ge using standard hydride generation procedures. Using inert polymer components and a reliable pumping system, users can quickly switch between flame and hydride.

Features

Allows superior detection limits for hydride metals compared to graphite furnace AAS, typically in the 100-500 parts-per-trillion range.
Can install easily and rapidly to existing flame set-up and run within 2 minutes.
Does not require hydrogen gas
Continuous flow pump design allows for simple interfacing of intelligent auto-sampler for high-throughput, unattended operation.
4 order of magnitude dynamic range using the Buck Model 210VGP AA system for the highest accuracy over a wide range of sample concentrations.....minimizing dilutions and errors.
Inert tubing gives rapid equilibration time allowing typical throughputs of 50 samples per hour with reproducibilities of better than 2% at the 500 ppt level.
Optimized procedures for all the hydride elements eliminates development time and simplifies operations for the chemist or lab technician.
Low format footprint requires minimal bench space and unit can be put on a cart or side table.
