ICP-OES Elemental Analyzer for Metal Analysis
The ICP-OES elemental analyzer is designed for the simultaneous analysis of multiple elements and metals using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry, or ICP-OES. It is suitable for laboratories performing elemental analysis, quality control, research, and product development.
The ICP elemental analyzer can measure elements in a wide variety of sample types, including:
- Aqueous samples and solutions that use water as the main solvent
- Samples containing high levels of dissolved salts or total dissolved solids, with an optional Argon Humidifier for high-salt applications
- Lubricating oils and used engine oils for monitoring wear metals released from mechanical components
- Organic samples that are suitable for direct introduction into the ICP system
- Food samples, such as milk powder prepared by mixing it with water until a homogeneous solution is obtained before analysis
How Does an ICP-OES Analyzer Work
The ICP-OES analysis process begins by introducing a liquid sample into the Nebulizer, which converts the sample into a fine mist called an aerosol. The aerosol then passes through the Spray Chamber before entering the argon plasma inside the Torch.
Energy supplied by the RF Generator creates and maintains a high-energy plasma. This plasma provides sufficient energy to excite the atoms and ions of the elements contained in the sample.
When the excited atoms or ions return to their normal energy states, they emit light at wavelengths that are specific to each element. The Optical Spectrometer separates these wavelengths and sends them to the Detector, which measures the intensity of the emitted light.
The ICP software then compares the measured signal with the Calibration Standards to calculate the concentration of each element in the sample.
