Analytik Jena - Model contrAA 800 Series -Multi-Element Analysis Analyzer

• Fast multi-element analysis
• Accurate results with maximum precision
• Extended measuring range

Any Wavelength, Element and Time
The contrAA 800 offers maximum flexibility in elemental analysis, enabling the determination of virtually any element at any wavelength and at any time. A single xenon short-arc lamp serves as the universal light source for all applications, eliminating the need for lamp changes. Fast-sequential analysis reduces measurement times by up to 30%, while 3D visualization of absorption spectra supports flexible method development and reliable result evaluation. The system allows the accurate determination of metals, semi-metals, metalloids, and even non-metals in a wide range of applications.

High-Resolution Continuum Source (HR-CS) AAS
With the contrAA 800, lamp changes in AAS are a thing of the past. A single high-intensity xenon short-arc lamp covers the entire wavelength range required for atomic absorption spectroscopy, significantly simplifying operation. The high-resolution spectrometer equipped with a CCD detector delivers full 3D spectral information, ensuring maximum confidence in analytical results and outstanding detection limits down to the sub-ppb range. Fast sequential and true multi-element measurements minimize analysis time while maximizing sample throughput. Fully automated spectral background correction using intelligent software routines such as ABC and the CSI tool enables the reliable analysis of even complex sample matrices. A sophisticated instrument design integrates this unique optical concept with all major atomization techniques—including flame, graphite furnace, and hydride generation—within a single platform. A broad portfolio of intelligent accessories further enhances productivity, safety, and ease of use in routine analysis. In addition, fully automated direct solid analysis allows samples to be measured without time-consuming digestion steps.

ASpect CS is specifically designed for multi-element analysis using HR-CS AAS and enables efficient, routine data handling through an intuitive and highly flexible user interface. Even complex analytical tasks beyond everyday routines can be managed with ease. The software allows the simultaneous evaluation of multiple element lines within a single spectrum as well as the free definition of individual integration ranges. Advanced correction algorithms automatically compensate for complex structured backgrounds and spectral interferences using the CSI tool, delivering highly reliable and accurate results. Three-dimensional, high-definition spectral visualization (HD Spectrum) supports clear data interpretation and facilitates method optimization.

ASpect CS further supports streamlined method development through predefined SOPs and a wide range of innovative evaluation tools, including the CSI tool. High safety standards and full adherence to Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) are ensured, while optional FDA 21 CFR Part 11 compliance enables use in regulated laboratory environments.
