The Macylab ICP-6800E is a direct-reading Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES) professionally designed for the analysis and determination of rare earth elements. It is specifically engineered to measure 15 lanthanide series elements alongside Scandium (Sc) and Yttrium (Y), providing a total of 17 target elements for rare earth composition analysis.
Operating with a 1000mm focal length Czerny-Turner optical system and an imported Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) detector, the instrument provides the high spectral resolution necessary to separate the complex emission lines typical of rare earth matrices. It analyzes liquid samples dissolved in common acids, including nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, and hydrofluoric acid.
Key Features
Dedicated Rare Earth Focus: Designed for the composition analysis of rare earth ores, as well as the quality examination of raw materials and finished products containing lanthanide elements.
Solid-State RF Power Supply: Features an automatic matching function operating at a frequency of 27.12MHz. The power output is adjustable between 500W and 1600W, maintaining a strict output stability of <0.3% to ensure consistent plasma generation.
Czerny-Turner Optical System: Utilizes a 1000mm focal length optical bench equipped with an ion beam etching holographic grating. The system can be configured with a 3600 lines/mm grating to maximize resolution or a 2400 lines/mm grating to extend the wavelength range.
Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) Detector: Integrates high-performance R293 or R928 PMT detectors driven by a stable negative high voltage supply (0-1000V, stability <0.05%), ensuring reliable photoelectric conversion of emission signals.
Precision Sampling System: Includes a three-concentric torque tube (20mm external diameter), a 6mm coaxial nebulizer, and a 34mm double barrel atomizing chamber to support efficient sample introduction.
