OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETER

Q4 POLO

The new Q4 POLO is the ready-to-analyze solution from day one, covering all relevant elements and wide concentration ranges. Each base metal package includes all dedicated alloy groups, calibrations, and standardization samples. At the same time, the Q4 POLO provides high uptime, low maintenance, and hassle-free operation. In addition to superior analytical performance for a full range of elements, the Q4 POLO enables applications previously not addressable by such compact instruments:

• Outstanding precision, particularly on light elements
• Excellent results in the challenging analysis of cast iron
• Reliable analysis of nitrogen at low ppm levels in low alloyed steels
• Analysis of oxygen in copper

Highlights:

• AAC™ (Automatic Ambient Compensation) is Bruker's patented concept for self-focusing under temperature variations eliminates thermal drifts.
• The new ArgonShield™ prevents contamination of the optical window during measurements
• The innovative MultiVision™ optics is equipped with an electromagnetic light junction to use the full elemental range with best performance and compactness
• 130 - 785 nm wavelength coverage for comprehensive access to all relevant elements
• The insulated SafetyTip on the new sample clamp prevents incorrect sample positioning, and ensures safe operation for a wide variety of samples

Applications:

• Iron and steel (Fe), and its alloys
• Aluminum (Al), and its alloys
• Copper (Cu), and its alloys
