This flame photometer with four filters is a specialized analytical instrument used for the quantitative analysis of metal ions, particularly alkali and alkaline earth metals, in a variety of samples.

Here’s an overview of the key features and functions of the equipment:

Principle of Operation:

• The flame photometer operates on the principle of atomic emission spectroscopy. It uses a flame to atomize and excite metal ions present in a sample, and then measures the intensity of light emitted at specific wavelengths to determine the concentration of the metal ions.

Filters:

• The inclusion of four filters in the flame photometer allows for the measurement of emission intensities at multiple wavelengths. Each filter corresponds to a specific wavelength of light, enabling the simultaneous or sequential analysis of different metal ions present in the sample.

Sample Analysis:

• The flame photometer is commonly used to analyze the concentration of metal ions, such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and lithium, in samples including biological fluids (e.g., blood, serum, urine), environmental and geological samples, industrial materials, and pharmaceutical preparations.

Quantitative Analysis:

• By measuring the emitted light intensities at the characteristic wavelengths for each metal, the flame photometer can provide quantitative data on the concentrations of the metal ions in the sample.

Calibration and Standards:

• Prior to sample analysis, the flame photometer requires calibration using standard solutions of known metal ion concentrations. This calibration ensures accurate and reliable quantitative measurements.

Sensitivity and Selectivity:

• The four-filter flame photometer offers high sensitivity and selectivity for the detection of specific metal ions, allowing for precise and accurate analysis even at low concentrations.

Laboratory and Field Applications:

• Flame photometers are used in various scientific and industrial settings, including research laboratories, clinical laboratories, environmental monitoring, agricultural analysis, and quality control in manufacturing processes.

Data Handling and Software:

• Some  of our modern products do feature data handling capabilities and software for result calculation, data storage, and report generation, enhancing the efficiency and traceability of analytical processes.

Maintenance and Care:

• Proper maintenance and care, including routine cleaning, calibration verification, and periodic instrument performance checks, are essential to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the flame photometer’s analytical results.

In summary, our flame photometer with four filters is a valuable analytical tool for the precise and simultaneous measurement of metal ion concentrations in diverse samples, contributing to applications in research, quality control, and environmental and clinical analysis.
