ICP-OES spectrophotometers

PerkinElmer has announced the Optima 7000 series of inductively coupled plasma-optical emissions spectrophotometers (ICP-OES). The family is designed for best-in-class inorganic analysis and is used in a variety of markets, including environmental, geochemical, product testing and biofuels.

This newest generation includes a universal data acquisition mode that records all the spectral data for each sample, enabling users to retrieve data that was not initially reported without needing to run the sample again.

The instrument has several time-saving enhancements for laboratory personnel.

For rapid review of results, it generates an error flag if a sample result falls above or below a user-specified value.

To ensure a consistently high level of data and without requiring additional resources, the instrumentation can automatically generate quality control charts that show results for analyses run over a specified time.
