Flame Photometer

Product Details:

Provide accurate sodium, potassium, calcium, and lithium determinations.

• Features additional calcium channel and lithium internal standard

Includes

• One each of Na⁺, K⁺, Ca⁺, Li⁺ filters, one each of 1000 ppm Na⁺, Ca⁺, K⁺, Li⁺ standards in a 100-mL bottle, two meters each of gas and air tubing with connectors, RS-2

More About this Item

• This enhanced four-element flame photometer offers the same great features found on our dual-channel flame photometer, plus a calcium channel and direct measurement of Ca⁺ with potassium, which are two vital elements for soil analysis. Unit allows you to measure calcium in combination with sodium, and also with lithium without an internal standard.
• Use this flame photometer as a detector in combination with multi-channel analyzers from Bran & Luebbe, Skalar, and Lachat. This system includes its own protocols for calibration, and features a special mode allowing you to set up the flame photometer within these protocols. User-selectable signal averaging is designed into the system allowing you to use these protocols along with analog output. Features include automatic ignition sequence, lithium internal standard, monitoring and control software, dual-channel display, and independent calibration of each channel. An automatic gas shutoff mechanism activates if the flame is accidentally extinguished, or if air pressure drops.
• Order optional Automatic Dilutor 02657-00 which accurately dilutes your samples and standards; order optional Autosampler 02657-25 for a fully automatic analysis solution for your longer sampling runs.

Specificity

• <0.5% interference when concentrations are equal to test sample concentrations

Range

• ppm all 1.00 to 9.99 ppm, 10.0 to 199.9; mmol/L as above except Li only 1.00 to 5.00

Fuel Supply

• High-grade propane/butane, or propane/butane mixture regulated at approximately 30 psi; natural gas - only with single-channel photometer

Other Details

Product Details:

Economical unit with tried and true capabilities inherited from higher priced models.

Features:

• Five element filter stick allows quick and easy filter selection
• Ergonomic design with removable front tray for easy cleaning

Ideal for the testing of alkali metals in chemical manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, soil analysis, food, paper industries, and much more! Pull out or push in the filter stick to select from sodium (Na), potassium (K), lithium (Li), calcium (Ca), or barium (Ba) filters. The sample solution is aspirated into the flame, emitting a wavelength of light; the intensity of the light is proportional to the concentration of the atom in the solution. A photodetector measures the light and indicates the result on the digital display. Features include auto ignition and flame optimization, LED indicators for selected filter, digital display with hold button, recorder output, and fail-safe flame detection with auto shutoff. Spill-containment front tray is easily removed for quick cleanup. The mixing chamber, burner head, and burner stem are disassembled without tools for easy maintenance.
