Stationary Metal Analyzer New software suite and more: leading the revolution in high-end metal analysis

HIGH-PERFORMANCE ARC/SPARK OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETER (OES) The latest revolution in metal analysis for process control and research SPECTRO, the arc/spark innovation leader, has spent 40-plus years developing superlative OES instruments. Recently it’s perfected solid-state detectors using proprietary CMOS+T technology to revolutionize high-end arc/spark OES analysis — with SPECTROLAB S. This instrument’s efficiency and economy are continuously improved by systematic voice-of-customer inputs and rigorous usability testing. So now a fully reimagined software suite brings even more functional,...

The best performance for unbeatable benefits Users of high-end stationary metal analyzers face some challenging tasks. They must identify and measure — with especially high accuracy and precision — all the elements in their incoming, in-production, and outgoing materials. This may include research on new materials as well. Groundbreaking CMOS+T Outstanding uptime Easy, cost-saving setup capabilities With SPECTROLAB S, regular Many testing periods require only a The SPECTROLAB S has the world's maintenance intervention requirements single-sample, 5-minute standardization. first CMOS-based detector...

Key to any metal analyzer: its detectors, which register the wavelength and intensity of the light emitted by each element in a sample. SPECTROLAB S uses today's most advanced linear CMOS detectors. These solid-state complementary metal oxide semiconductor devices are manufactured via proven integrated circuit detector technology. With CMOS, readout electronics perform analog-to-digital conversion and noise reduction on the chip itself. This results in exceptional dynamic range and higher data throughput. Until now, many users performing metal analysis have preferred that their high-end analyzers...

Powerful plasma generator and ignition board The exceptionally robust new high-energy LDMOS plasma generator developed for SPECTROLAB S produces an ultra-stable spark, with frequencies up to 1000 Hz. Result: the shortest possible measurement times (example: less than 20 seconds for low-alloy steel). This system also allows application-specific spark parameter settings for optimized analytical performance. Two dedicated optics To ensure optimum resolution of challenging analytical lines, SPECTROLAB S employs two complete, dedicated optical systems. One precisely measures wavelengths from 120 to...

Users get LODs previously attainable only with PMT detectors. And on some key elements, SPECTROLAB S CMOS+T technology even surpasses PMT performance! One new enhancement lets the latest version outperform previous models with 30% lower LODs for trace elements like antimony, tellurium, and lead in high-purity copper. Analytical functionality is maximized by configuring the best possible relationship between given analytical and reference lines. Depending on the application, it can easily determine trace values for critical elements in single parts per million (ppm). Spectacular stability Excellent...
