contrAA 800 D is the incredibly flexible all-round talent with an application range unrivaled in AAS.
Thanks to its automatic atomizer change contrAA 800 D combines flame-, hydride-/HydrEA- and graphite furnace technique, including solid AA, with all technological advantages of the High-Resolution Continuum Source atomic absorption spectrometry in a compact design.
contrAA 800 D – Your Benefits:
- Just one light source for all elements – each element and each line can be measured at any time
- Unique simultaneous background correction
- Fast-sequential and simultaneous multi-element analysis
- Rapid readiness for measurement
- Automatic atomizer change and two-dimensional atomizer alignment
- Automatically optimized drying process for highly efficient analysis
- Easy to operate and robust
ASpect CS has been specifically developed for multi-element analysis with the contrAA. In addition to a fast sequential determination of different elements in one sample several element lines in the spectrum window can be analyzed simultaneously. Automatic optimization routines find the optimum measuring conditions for every application. Automatic correction routines (ABC) provide a simultaneous correction of complex structured background. Spectral interferences are resolved using matrix correction spectra (CSI).
ASpect CS – Your Benefits
- Simultaneous multi-element analysis
- Free definition of the integration range of each line
- Simultaneous background correction
- Efficient correction of spectral interferences
- Easy creation of analytical methods for one or several elements
- Optimization routines for optimal measuring conditions
- Manipulation-protected data storage
- FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliance
ABC — Automatic Baseline Correction
The unprecedented ABC algorithm for background correction convinces by automatically fitting a global baseline to the entire spectral background. Unlike conventional correction methods, contrAA allows to visually verify the background correction within the HD Spectrum. Confidence in the measured values is increased as you can see what you measure!
CSI-Software-Tool – Correction of Spectral Interferences
Although spectral interferences are reduced to a minimum due to the high spectral resolution of the contrAA, sometimes spectral interference caused by matrix elements or molecular bands have to be corrected. The CSI software tool allows for an easy and efficient correction of such interferences. Thanks to its patented least-square algorithm CSI is the most powerful tool for correcting spectral interference, thus improving detection sensitivity, method robustness and productivity of your analytics.
