Petroleum Products Analysis with a Radially Viewed, CCD Based ICP-AES Instrument
Jan 11 2008
This instrument is especially well suited to petrochemical analyses because of
- it offers a variety of sample introduction systems: Scott or cyclonic spray chamber with optional thermoregulation; a special nebulizer for wear metals in used oil, and the optional patented system that heats oil or wax to 80 °C, including a special autosampler (thermoregulated sample path),
- radial viewing of the total plasma Normal Analytical Zone with a vertical torch,
- unique sheath gas regulation to minimize sample deposits and memory effects, while improving long-term stability,
- an optional computer controlled oxygen addition for optimization of trace Na determination,
- efficient transfer optics and ultra-low noise, 2048 x 512 pixels CCD detector,
- Statistical Process Control software for oil (wear metals in oil) and fuel monitoring.
The ACTIVA-M won the Bronze Award from Pittconâs Editor at Pittsburgh conference in March 2007.
