The Thermo Scientific iCAP PRO Series ICP-OES platform has been designed to provide a fast, sensitive range of trace element analysis solutions capable of capturing the complete spectrum of high-matrix samples in a single run. The iCAP PRO also starts from standby in five minutes, and gas consumption is reduced within a vertical dual-purged optical pathway interface that has lower installation requirements due to the use of a standard wall socket and low extraction flow rate. The combination of a single optical slit and a charge injection device detector deliver increased analysis speeds and readout, reducing the number of measurements per run to obtain a complete spectrum. Stable optics and polychromator reduce the requirement for recalibration of the instrument.
