This is Baird's top-of-the-line plasma Instrument, designed for the determination of up to 60 elements by simultaneous ICP emission spectrometry. Engineered into this rugged selfcontained System are highresolution polychromator optics; a 40 MHz, solid state, RF generator with Iow-flow plasma torch; and easily-learned, menu-driven software.
