A new version of the AAnalyst 200 touch-screen sotware is now available that makes the system more powerful and easier to use than ever before. Included in this new software are:

• Expanded language capability with the addition of Portuguese, Polish and Greek to the existing 8 languages (i.e., English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese and Russian)
• Sample ID and dilution-factor correction
• Integrated AS-93 autosampler pump control
• Faster setup when using alternate wavelengths and/or slits.

User interface: Complete control of the AAnalyst™ 200 through an innovative touch-screen interface. Flexible software for lamp setup, flame control, parameter selection and sample analysis. The tools menu provides access to recommended conditions, method storage and recall, data transfer and service diagnostics screens. The AAnalyst 200 supports multiple languages, including Spanish, English, French, Russian, Japanese, German, Italian and Chinese.

Display: Full-color 10.4” LCD touch screen. VGA resolution (640 x 480 pixels). Coated for maximum durability and lifetime.

Optical system: Echelle monochromator. Focal length: 300 mm. Grating: 36 x 185 mm area, 79 lines/mm, blaze angle 76˚. Fused quartz prism: 95 x 40 mm, 60˚. Wavelength range: 189-900 nm. Spectral bandpass: 0.15 nm at 200 nm. The photometer optics are covered to protect against dust and corrosive vapors. For maximum protection, the optical system can be purged with an inert gas.

Detector: High efficiency, segmented solid-state detector.

Light sources: Hollow cathode lamps (HCLs) and electrodeless discharge lamps (EDLs). EDLs provide much higher light output and longer lifetime when compared to conventional HCLs. Lamp elements and recommended operating currents and slit selection are automatically recognized and set when using PerkinElmer® Lumina™ series AA lamps. Lamp alignment is completely automatic in models with a four-lamp turret.

Burner system: An inert polymer mixing chamber provides superior analysis of corrosive and high solid matrices. The spray chamber is manufactured from a high strength composite, eliminating the need for pressure relief devices. The high-precision inert nebulizer maximizes stability and sensitivity. A 10-cm single-slot solid titanium burner head for air/acetylene operation is included. Optional burner heads include: 5-cm nitrous-oxide/acetylene, 10-cm 3-slot air/acetylene and 5-cm single slot air/acetylene.
