The Macylab ICP-6800 is a direct-reading Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES) designed for the quantitative determination of trace elements in various matrices. Operating with a 1000mm focal length Czerny-Turner optical system, the instrument analyzes liquid samples dissolved in common acids, including nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, and hydrofluoric acid.
Equipped with an imported Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) detector and a solid-state RF power supply featuring an automatic matching function, the ICP-6800 offers laboratories a highly configurable platform. By selecting the appropriate holographic grating, users can tailor the instrument for either high-resolution spectral separation or an extended measurement wavelength range.
Key Features
Solid-State RF Power Supply: Features an automatic load matching function operating at 27.12MHz. The output power is adjustable from 500W to 1600W, delivering a power output stability of < 0.3% to maintain a stable plasma discharge.
Configurable Czerny-Turner Optics: Employs a 1000mm focal length optical bench equipped with an ion beam etching holographic grating. Users can configure the system with a 3600 lines/mm grating or a 2400 lines/mm grating to match their specific analytical requirements.
Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) Detector: Integrates high-performance R293 or R928 PMT detectors powered by a stable negative high voltage supply (0-1000V, stability <0.05%), ensuring reliable photoelectric conversion of emission signals.
Robust Sample Introduction: The system includes a three-concentric torque tube (20mm external diameter), a 6mm coaxial nebulizer, and a 34mm double barrel atomizing chamber to support effective aerosol generation and sample delivery.
Precise Gas Regulation: Carrier, plasma, and auxiliary Argon gas flows are controlled through dedicated flowmeters, alongside a 0-0.4MPa pressure maintaining valve to ensure safe and stable plasma operation.
