SPECTROMETERS

FLAME ATOMIC ABSORPTION

Equipment

 
  • Perkin-Elmer Model 3100, purchased in 1992, able to do single element analysis on solutions.
  • Pye Unicam 6-550 ICP-AES, Thermal Jarrell Ash, purchased in 1984. Able to do multi-element analysis on solutions. This is a dual spectrometer with an old DEC system of integrating data; there is a possibility it could be reduced to a single spectrometer and connected to a PC which would improve its reliability. Located in Reston.
