The SPECTRO ARCOS ICP-OES excels in industrial and academic applications for the most advanced elemental analysis of metals, chemicals, petrochemicals, and other materials. The periscope-free MultiView mechanism lets an operator literally "turn" a radial-view instrument into an axial-view device, or vice-versa, in 90 seconds or less.
The design of the SPECTRO ARCOS ensures exceptionally low operating costs over a long, reliable service life. And it packs a modern, ergonomic chassis with proven features such as no-purge UV-PLUS sealed gas purification technology, no-external-cooling OPI-Air Interface.
Plasma power enters a whole new era with the system’s innovative generator. This unique component is based on laterally diffused metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) technology. SPECTRO ARCOS is the first ICP-OES analyzer to deploy this type of powerful and extremely rugged solid-state generator.
SPECTROGREEN ICP-OES: Revolutionary Dual Side-On Interface (DSOI) Technology
Thanks to DSOI technology twice the sensitivity of conventional radial-plasma-view instruments ✓ TI enables highest sensitivity for trace elements, as well as freedom from matrix interferences ✓ Extremely agile, LDMOS generator without external cooling – faster warmup for higher productivity more
SPECTROCUBE ED-XRF: The Fastest XRF Spectrometer in its Class
Fastest in its class: Twice as fast as typical testing, high precision with high speed ✓ Excels in scope and accuracy: Optimized application packages ✓ Unparalleled ease-of-use: Just three simple steps to accurate results more
A Quantum Leap in Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Technology (ED-XRF)
Outstanding sensitivity leads to up to a factor 3 improved precision compared to previous models ✓ Significantly (typically a factor 3) lower limits of detection for a wide range of elements ✓ Turboquant II software tool provides an unprecedented ability to analyze unknown samples more
