Lumex Instruments’ MGA-1000 series of graphite furnace atomic absorption (GFAA) spectrometers crystallizes intuitive technology and excellent handling. GFAA spectrometry gives a perfect mix of high selectivity and sensitivity along with the low operational cost.
With High-Frequency Zeeman background correction system, MGA-1000 guarantees effective compensation of intense and swiftly varying spectral interferences and takes standard analysis of complex samples to new levels.
Key Technologies
- Concurrent measurement of total and background absorptions with Zeeman High-Frequency Polarization Modulation (ZHFPM) background correction
- Electrodeless Discharge Lamps (EDL) offer low detection parameters and direct As and Se determination at sub-ppb levels without hydride generation method
- Stabilized temperature platform furnace (STPF) concept is fulfilled
- Quasi-double beam optics remove drifts and enable direct work without any warm-up needed
- Compact and effective cooling system in the starter-pack
- Gas-phase dynamic dilution system expands the list of applications – determination of trace elements as well as key components is possible
- Cold Vapor/Hydride Generation apparatus is available
