An atomic spectrometer has been updated with an autosampler that automates standard and sample introduction for instrument calibration and sample analysis, extending the instrument's capabilities to those of a fully-automated analytic workstation.

The computer-controlled, multi-purpose sampling system for atomic absorption (AA) offers inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS).

The PerkinElmer (Waltham, MA, USA) atomic spectrometer addition is called the S10 autosampler. It features an advanced drive system with high-precision motors that move the sampling arm of the S10 in the X and Y coordinates simultaneously to minimize changeover time between samples. It includes random-access programming for flexibility and more than 200 vessel positions for maximum capacity. Easily interchangeable sample racks allow for faster analysis setup.
