Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document discusses the Prodigy High Dispersion ICP, highlighting its advanced features and benefits for laboratory productivity and analytical performance.

Simultaneous ICP and Array Detection
The Prodigy ICP allows for simultaneous measurement of multiple wavelengths, enhancing productivity without increasing analysis time. The advanced array detector enables easy modification of elements of interest via software.

Optical Spectrometer Design
The Prodigy is a compact, high-resolution benchtop instrument offering superior performance. It supports axial, radial, or dual view configurations and features an image-stabilized ICP source for quick warm-up and long-term stability.

High Resolution and Wavelength Coverage
The spectrometer provides an optical resolution of 0.0075 nm, reducing spectral interferences and improving accuracy. An optional input slit offers resolutions up to 0.005 nm for complex samples. It covers wavelengths from 160 to 900 nm, allowing access to previously inaccessible wavelengths.

Stray Light Reduction
The long focal length (800 mm) of the spectrometer reduces stray light, enhancing performance in complex matrices. This design results in four times lower stray light compared to competitors.

Large Format Programmable Array Detector (L-PAD)
The L-PAD's large format (27mm x 27mm) and high dispersion design provide superior resolution and fewer interferences. It offers a wide linear dynamic range exceeding six orders of magnitude, reducing the need for sample dilutions.

Simultaneous Data Collection
The Prodigy ICP is unique in offering true simultaneous data collection for all elements, backgrounds, and standards, improving detection limits and measurement precision.

Productivity and Reliability
The Prodigy ensures superior analytical reliability with fewer interferences and less drift, leading to fewer QC failures and reruns, thus enhancing productivity.

Conclusion
The Prodigy High Dispersion ICP is presented as a superior choice for laboratories seeking advanced performance, productivity, and reliability in their analytical processes.

14 Reasons to Choose a Prodigy-1

14 Reasons to Choose the Prodigy High Dispersion ICP • Prodigy’s superior optical resolution of 0.0075 nm results in fewer spectral interferences, better accuracy and fewer QC failures. Designed for Superior Performance, Productivity and Reliability 1 High Resolution Spectrometer • For the high performance applications, Prodigy also offers an optional user selectable input slit allowing optical resolutions as high as 0.005 nm to be selected. This feature further improves performance in spectrally complex sample types. Simultaneous ICP with State-of-the-art Array Detection • Improves laboratory productivity because simultaneous design permits measurement of multiple wavelengths at the same time without extending the sample analysis time. 6 Superior Wavelength Coverage • Prodigy’s optical design allows the user to access all wavelengths from 160 to 900 nm. This opens up previously inaccessible wavelengths for many elements giving the analyst the ability to achieve superior detection limits for some elements. • Advanced array detector permits operator to add or change the elements of interest directly from the instrument software. Lower stray light The following benefits are provided by Prodigy’s Technically Advanced Optical Spectrometer Design 2 Compact High Resolution Benchtop Instrument • Prodigy provides superior analytical performance without taking up more of your valuable laboratory space. Axial, Radial or Dual View Configurations to suit all of today’s applications Image Stabilized ICP Source for fast warm-up and superior long-term stability • Prodigy’s long focal length optical spectrometer (800 mm) results in lower stray light and superior performance in complex sample matrices. Stray light is inversely proportional to the square of the focal length. Because Prodigy’s focal length is 2 times greater than most competing systems it has 4 times lower the stray light. Why choose a Prodigy ICP? For its: State of the Art Array Detection Compact Benchtop Design Axial, Radial or Dual View Capability Long-term Stability High Resolution Superior Wavelength Coverage Wide Dynamic Range Superior Productiviy

14 Reasons to Choose a Prodigy-2

© Superior long-term stability • Prodigy typically provides long-term stability better than 20/0 RSD per day. This translates into superior productivity from less drift and fewer QC failures. The following benefits are a result of Prodigys' Innovative new State-of-the-art Large Format Programmable Array Detector (L-PAD) O Large format detector (27mm by 27 mm) • Prodigy's L-PAD allows us to take advantage of the high dispersion spectrometer design (meaning the distance between adjacent wavelengths is greater) yielding superior resolution and few interferences). Most competing ICPs use a detector...
