Spark Emission Spectrometers are being increasingly used in refining industry for internal production control and analysis of Pure Gold. The technique is a very straight forward and easy to use. A sample, taken from the molten metal is prepared using a lathe machine to make one surface flat and then it is directly placed on the spark stand of the instrument and analysis of all calibrated elements of interest is available in 30 to 60 secs. It uses only Argon gas and mains power. No chemicals or other utilities are required.
SPECTROLAB
SPECTROLAB is the most advanced and state of the art Spark Emission Spectrometer. Stability, flexibility, and analytical functionality combine in a high performance package that is in a class of its own. Available in hybrid PMT/CCD and breakthrough new all-CCD versions, this analyzer sets a new standard for R&D and process/quality control.
Both the third-generation hybrid and brand-new all-CCD SPECTROLAB models offer excellent optical performance for metals industry applications. The hybrid version provides unbeatable precision, flexibility, and stability for specialized R&D laboratories. It’s especially suitable for testing precious metals trace elements and inclusions.
The all-CCD version delivers impressive reproducibility, stability, and speed, along with advantages such as fast, simple iCAL calibration. These make it ideal for time-critical applications such as process control or melting control.
The unit’s new Spark Analyzer Pro software presents a revolutionary new level of operator interface simplicity. The program includes straightforward, self-explanatory icons and a familiar, ergonomic approach with little learning curve. Only authorized users can access the method development / knowledge base module for more complex tasks.
Well-designed sample adaptors for analysing small samples, thin sheets and wires are available for analysis of irregular shaped samples.
SPECTROMAXx
The third generation of the SPECTROMAXx arc spark OES metal analyzer features improved operation, with the use of toolbar buttons, a user management system, and a separation of operation from programming of the instrument. The measurement is no longer controlled through the menu, but with symbols and toolbar buttons. Once a procedure has been started, only the functions that are logical at that point in time are active in the control software – all other commands are hidden. With the new application profiles, customer specific information can be set before beginning operation, relieving laboratory technicians of administrative activities.
The SPECTROMAXx arc spark OES metal analyzer independently monitors all operating parameters. It dynamically determines the measurement time required based on the given sample properties and even shows when the spark stand needs to be cleaned depending on the type of samples being examined.
SPECTROMAXx is available in both floor version as well as in bench-top version.
