Frequently Asked Questions
Technical information
Who is ULTIMA Expert designed for?
For laboratories that prioritize resolution, low limits and robustness in challenging matrices.
Does the equipment analyze a solid sample directly?
No. The ICP-OES analysis is done in solution; solids usually require digestion or other preparation.
Can the ULTIMA Expert handle high dissolved-solids content?
The configuration with radial plasma and Sheath Gas was designed to improve tolerance and can meet matrices with high levels according to method.
