Agilent launches new spectrometer offering lower-cost performance

Agilent Technologies has announced the launch of its efficient new Agilent 4210 microwave plasma-atomic emission spectrometer.

The device is optimised to help laboratories to run more samples at a lower cost, particularly when carrying out multi-element analysis, since it runs on air rather than flammable gas. This also makes it safer to operate.

Other key features include its advanced valve system, an inert torch, a humidifier, a temperature-controlled spray chamber, a multimode sample-introduction system, and enhanced diagnostics software.

The 4210 also provides a variety of automation software capabilities to enable remote elemental analysis, allowing the device to be used for applications such as on-site process stream and environmental monitoring.

As such, Agilent expects the system to be well-suited to the needs of the food, agriculture, petrochemical, environmental and mining industries.

Philip Binns, Agilent's vice-president of spectroscopy products, said: "Laboratories that have the new 4210 MP-AES will have access to the lowest-cost elemental analysis possible, giving them a competitive advantage over labs that don't have it."
