PerkinElmer Launches the New Optima™8x00 ICP-OES Spectrometer PerkinElmer, Inc.
PerkinElmer Inc. launches the Optima 8x00 ICP-OES platform to offer improved performance and reduced operating costs for analysis of environmental, food, pharmaceutical, product safety and geochemical samples. ICP-OES is a highly sensitive, rapid technique for determining the elemental composition of a wide variety of sample types.
The Optima 8x00 series is designed for ease of use and exceptional throughput and detection limits, which helps maximize productivity and profitability of testing laboratories. Based on customer needs and real-world applications, the Optima 8x00 series has a number of new features that will enable laboratories to lower their cost per analysis and more easily meet the ever-changing regulatory requirements.
New innovative radio frequency (RF) generator technology dramatically reduces argon consumption, thus driving a reduction in the cost of ownership with increased efficiency. A novel electronic sample introduction system provides superior sensitivity which, coupled with enhanced stability, helps address the ever increasing regulatory demands of the environmental and pharmaceutical markets.
Key features of the Optima8x00 platform include:
•Flat Plate™ Plasma Technology: A patented RF generator featuring maintenance-free plasma induction plates in place of the traditional helical load coil. With no cooling required and reduced argon consumption, operating costs are dramatically reduced.
•PlasmaCam™ Viewing Camera: By offering continuous viewing of the plasma, this integrated camera simplifies method development and enables remote diagnostic capabilities for maximum uptime. Ideal for high-throughput contract labs in food/product safety/geochemical.
The Optima 8x00 series performance is assured when used with PerkinElmer exclusive glassware, including torches and injectors. The complete portfolio of specialized accessories, supplies and consumables deliver reliable performance, help reduce operating costs and maximize instrument uptime.
