The Macylab ICP-6810-A2 is a full-spectrum, direct-reading Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES) engineered for the quantitative determination of trace and major elements. Operating across a broad wavelength range of 165nm to 950nm, the instrument analyzes samples digested in various acids, including nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, and hydrofluoric acid.
The system utilizes an echelle grating and prism cross-dispersion optical design with no moving optical parts. Combined with a large-area Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) detector, the ICP-6810-A2 captures the intensity integral values of all analyzed spectral lines in a single exposure, allowing for the complete measurement of elements in a sample within one minute.
Key Features
Solid-State RF Power Supply: Equipped with an automated load matching technology that provides a stable 500–1600W output power. The RF generator operates with an output stability of <0.1%, supporting reliable plasma generation and sample excitation.
Echelle Grating Optical System: Employs a medium step grating (52.67 lp/mm) and an ultraviolet fused silica prism cross-dispersion method. This fixed optical design provides a high resolution of <0.0068nm at 200nm.
Automated Sample Introduction: Features a 12-rotor, 4-channel peristaltic pump where the speed can be adjusted to control the flow rate. Carrier gas, plasma gas, and auxiliary gas flows are accurately regulated by integrated mass flow controllers.
Large-Area CCD Detector: Incorporates a 27.6mm × 27.6mm CCD detector containing 1024 × 1024 addressing detection units. The detector is maintained at -45℃ using a three-stage semiconductor cooling system to reduce dark current and improve the signal-to-noise ratio.
Matrix Flexibility: The sample introduction module supports optional configurations, including imported high-salt atomizers or hydrofluoric acid (HF) resistant atomizers, to accommodate difficult sample matrices.
Constant Temperature Light Chamber: The optical chamber is maintained at a precise 35 ± 0.1℃ and utilizes a distributed nitrogen purging system (normal 2L/min, rapid 4L/min) to support measurement stability, especially in the deep ultraviolet range.
