Used THERMO SCIENTIFIC ARL 3460 #293816450 for sale

THERMO SCIENTIFIC ARL 3460 is an advanced optical emission spectrometer (OES) designed for precise analysis of alloy and metal samples. It utilizes a combination of argon-filled lamps, digital electronics and optics, providing fast and accurate elemental analysis in laboratory or online industrial applications. The spectrometer is comprised of a M0 monochromator and Czerny-Turner optics, housed within a temperature controlled enclosure which protects from changes in ambient temperature. The M0 monochromator is composed of a cooled concave mirror with a precisely tuned slit, which serves to narrow an emitted optical spectrum. This then passes through a focusing rod lens assembly which is split into two parts, receiving and emitting light respectively, before reaching the Czerny-Turner optics where the process of analyzing and quantifying is completed. ARL 3460 is also equipped with a two or four element linear CCD array detector, high-temperature supercondensed slit optics, and a motorized wavelength calibrator providing ultra-precise wavelength measurements. Using the slit optics, it can measure spectral lines with selectable band-widths, allowing for the detection of trace and low-level elements. In terms of software, users are provided with a suite of analysis tools for quick and straightforward interpretation of sample spectra and measuring of elements. The advanced software also allows for the detection of critical elements according to ISO and ASTM standards, as well as STEM analysis, enabling the user to determine composition of both as-cast metals and forged alloys, at any stage of production. Overall, THERMO SCIENTIFIC ARL 3460 provides a versatile, precise, and cost-efficient method for elemental analysis of metallic samples, making it a valuable asset for industrial, laboratory and research applications.
