SPECTRO Introduces New, More Rugged SPECTRO GENESIS ICP-OES Analyzer
The system establishes performance and productivity standards for users
SPECTRO Analytical Instruments introduced its latest version of the SPECTRO GENESIS inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES)—updated with a powerful new generator. The system establishes new price, performance and productivity standards for users such as condition monitoring laboratories, oil blenders and industrial laboratories and for environmental control.
The latest version of the SPECTRO GENESIS analyzer capitalizes on more than 30 years of benchmark service by SPECTRO ICP-OES analyzers and is well suited for a host of different applications. It provides factory calibrated method packages for industrial applications, including waste water, sludge, soil, fuels and wear metals/additives in oil, and provides swift, accurate, and cost-effective solutions for many analytical tasks.
The new SPECTRO GENESIS model brings next-generation plasma power to midrange spectrometers. Its new laterally diffused metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) generator delivers up to 1700 W of proven power. Benefits include:
- Faster warmup time for high productivity: While traditional tube-based generators take up to 30 minutes to stabilize after startup, the SPECTRO GENESIS analyzer’s new solid-state generator allows the system to be ready to analyze in less than 10 minutes for most applications.
- Excellent matrix compatibility: High power gives the instrument great agility in the case of rapidly changing plasma loads and provides high matrix compatibility. Samples can be analyzed in lower dilutions, for lower limits of detection.
- Longer lifetime: The new analyzer is extremely robust and trouble free. Its innovative air-cooled system operates without external cooling, delivering low running costs. Unlike traditional power sources, the analyzer’s new generator has no parts that are subject to wear—minimizing time and expense.
SPECTRO GENESIS also provides the speed of fully simultaneous analysis, achieving rapid sample cycle times of 90 seconds or less—independent of how many elements must be analyzed.
