Inductively Coupled Plasma - Optical Emission Spectrometry

MANDATORY MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS: Preferred instrument: ICP- OES comparable to the Agilent 5800; vendors may offer any equivalent system that meets the required specifications.1. Spectrometer RequirementsSimultaneous reading ICP OES w/ solid state detector.Bench top design only. Floor mount not acceptable.Echelle polychromator, 253 mm focal length, single detector, single entrance slit. Resolution: less than 0.0065 nm @ 200 nm; less than 0.013 nm @ 327.4 nm.Purged + thermostated optical enclosure; purge 0.7 L/min w/ 3 L/min boost option (less than 189 nm).Pixel level anti blooming detector.Vertical plasma; single piece torch. Optional torches must be available.View equal to or greater than 96% emission spectrum from 167-785 nm.Simultaneous UV + Vis determinations in one measurement.2. ICP System RequirementsBench top system; dual view vertical plasma (synchronous axial/radial).Must run aqueous + organic matrices including oil, MIBK, kerosene, hexanes.Monitors gas pressures/flows, water flows, air pressure, exhaust, plasma stability; auto shutdown on interlock breach.Operates at 15-30 degrees C and 25-80% RH; tolerates 2 degrees C/hr change with no performance loss.Exhaust requirement: equal to or greater than 2.5 m^3/min (88 ft^3/min).Power: equal to or less than 2.9 kVA, 200-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz, equal to or less than 15 amps3.
