Atomic Absorption (AA)

Atomic absorption is used to identify metals and metalloids in the environment. This technique is based on the absorption of specific wavelengths of light by ground state metals. A flame or graphite furnace is used to convert dissolved metal ions to their ground states. A detector identifies the wavelengths of light that are absorbed by these ground state metals to determine the concentration of metal ions in an unknown sample.

The ML500 is used to make standards, perform acid digestions, and sample dilutions for Atomic Absorption. The instrument eliminates the need for glass pipettes and volumetric glassware for large and small ratio dilutions (1:1 to 1:25,000 in a single step). The fluid path is made from Borosilicate Glass and PTFE that resists harsh chemicals and minimizes sample carryover.

Controller Options:

Basic A Series Controller - Economical option with limited functionality.
Advanced B Series Controller - Advanced controller with method storage and custom method capabilities
PC Controlled System - The ML500 is controlled with software written for the PC. This option provides the most programming options but requires a tethered PC. The C series ML500’s do not come with any accessories. The AA application requires the purchase of a ML531 or ML560 and the diluter valve and probe package as well as a sample and reagent syringe. The part number for the valve and probe package is DILPKG.
