iCE 3300 Lock Out Specification

 V2

The iCE 3300 AA Spectrometer provides the complete elemental analysis

packaging with stunning simplicity, innovative design and superior performance.

Design
• Foot print of 0.34m2 or smaller
• All connections located on the side of the instrument therefore eliminating the
need for access at the rear of the instrument
• Easy access lamp carousel
• Debris collection tray under flame compartment

Operation
• Automatic operation and multielement capability
• Flame atomic absorption/emission measurement
• Automatic optical setup
• Automated set up routines

Optics & Background

• 6 lamp auto-aligning turret with dedicated power supplies for each lamp
• Can accommodate uncoded or data coded and single or multielement lamps
• Double beam Stockdale Optics
• High energy, silica coated, sealed optical system with self calibrating Ebert
monochromator
• Monochromator with 1800 l/mm grating
• Reciprocal linear dispersion of 1.5 to 2 nm/mm
• Focal length 270nm
• Spectral bandpass of 0.2, 0.5 or 1.0 nm should be automatically selectable
• Choice of wavelength range
• Wavelength range 185-900 nm with a wide range PMT and 185 – 760nm
with a standard PMT
• Deuterium lamp background correction system modulated at 200/240 Hz,
 V2

• Guaranteed background correction for up to 2 Abs of background with

maximum error of 2%.
• Total signal 3A

Flame System
• Universal Finned Titanium 50mm burner suitable for air/acetylene and
nitrous oxide/acetylene flame types supplied as standard
• Burner recognition system to ensure correct gas for burner type fitted.
• An inert fluoroplastic spray chamber incorporating an externally
adjustable inert impact bead and flow spoiler.
• An inert over-pressure membrane should be housed in the rear of the
spray chamber for maximum operator safety.
• Automatic gas system using binary flow control and programmable array
state logic for reliability
• Full safety interlocks, including pressure sensors on both lines, power
failure protection, burner interlock and flame sensor
• Fuel and oxidant flow rates software controlled
• Flame and gas flow optimization should be possible by computer control
of the burner height and gas flow to maximize the signal. This function should
be able to be performed automatically
• Automatic flame ignition
• One spray chamber configuration and burner for all gas mixtures and
sample types
• Automatic flame optimization
.

elements.
• Context sensitive help
• Automatic programming of up to 16 elements
• Instrument must be operated through an appropriate data station
• Facility to record lamp usage
• Capable of automatically switching lamps on and off in an intelligent manner
to preserve lamp life but also ensure lamps are warmed up sufficiently at time
of use
• Normal, standard addition and standard curve calibration methods supported
• Segmented curve, linear and quadratic line fit options
• Flexible and comprehensive results database filters to select and display the
required data
