1 Description of instrument
1.1 Description
Designation: SPECTROLAB SPECTROLAB
Model: LAVM12 LACM12
Type: 76004140 76004141
1.2 Function
Sample material is evaporated by spark discharge inside the unit. In this process,
the released atoms and ions are excited and emit light. This light is directed into
the optical systems and measured using sensors.
Calibration data are already stored in the unit's memory. The measured values are
compared with these data. The measured values are converted into
concentrations and then displayed on the screen.
