The Perkin-Elmer Model 3110 is a cost effective double-beam AA spectrometer for flame, graphite furnace and mercury/hydride analysis. It offers solid performance, robust reliability and features normally found in higher-priced instruments, all in a compact system. The basic capabilities of the 3110 can be extended quickly, easily, and inexpensively as analytical requirements change.
The photometer of the Model 3110 is a double-beam system for maximum stability. It uses durable quartz-coated, reflecting optics for optimum energy throughput and a high-dispersion monochromator together with a high-performance photomultiplier for solid analytical performance.
A bright two-line alphanumeric display prompts the user through the initial instrument setup in easily understood terms. It also displays analytical results and trouble-shooting messages. Controls are easy to understand and use. Flame, furnace and flow injection operation modes can be selected via pushbuttons.
The build-in microprocessor provides results in absorbance, emission or concentration and allows the user to select the integration time, the scale expansion, multiple calibration standards and some basic statistics.
The build-in gas control system combines ease of operation with a full complement of safety features and interlocks.
A large sample compartment accommodates either the standard dual option burner system, an HGA graphite furnace or a mercury/hydride system.
