How does Varian achieve Fast Sequential operation?
Considerable time, sample and money are wasted with each pre-read delay in flame AA. By measuring all of the elements in one solution before proceeding to the next solution, the delay time and the total analysis time are reduced. Five key design innovations have facilitated this dramatic improvement in sample throughput using Fast Sequential operation: • The FS Wizard • Rapid response gas control • Automated sample handling • A High speed wavelength drive • Fixed lamps • FS wizard Intelligent software is the key to achieving Fast Sequential operation. Elements are sorted by wavelength and flame stoichiometry to optimize determination time and assure the fastest possible speed of analysis. • Rapid response gas control To enable fully optimized conditions when determining successive elements and avoid delays, gas flow rates must change instantaneously. Only Varian’s unique Hammer Gas Control system is capable of controlling gas flows with unmatched repeatability, precision and speed. • A
