Why ICP-10
Dual Analysis Modes
Choose between 2-minute rapid screening or 6-minute comprehensive analysis. Full-spectrum direct reading capability delivers complete elemental profiles in a single run.
Compact Integration
Smaller footprint than conventional ICP systems while maintaining 1-meter optical path. Optimized integration design maximizes laboratory space efficiency.
Configurable Optics
Four holographic grating options (2400-4320 lines/mm) let you optimize resolution versus range. Match the instrument to your element requirements, not the other way around.
Environmental Protection
New inflation device for optical chamber prevents moisture damage to precision components. High corrosion-resistant materials ensure long-term stability in demanding environments.
Select Your Configuration
| Configuration | Wavelength Range | Resolution | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| ICP-10-2400 | 160 – 800 nm | 16 pm |
|
| ICP-10-3600 | 160 – 530 nm | 9 pm |
|
| ICP-10-4320 | 160 – 442.5 nm | 7 pm |

Three-Step Selection Guide
Define Your Element Requirements
Do you need Alkali Metals (K, Na) or Long-Wave Elements?
If YES → Select ICP-10-2400 (160-800 nm). These elements emit beyond 530 nm and require full-spectrum coverage.
If NO (transition metals only: Fe, Cu, Mn, Cr, Ni, Zn) → Proceed to Step 2.
Assess Matrix Complexity
Simple matrices (aqueous solutions, clean minerals) → ICP-10-3600 (9 pm resolution) provides optimal performance.
Complex matrices (heavy industrial samples, rare earth mixtures, high spectral interference) → ICP-10-4320 (7 pm resolution) for maximum separation capability.
Select Sample Introduction Kit
KIT-AQUEOUS — Standard solutions, environmental water, food digests. General-purpose concentric nebulizer.
KIT-HIGH-SOLIDS — Mineral digests, metallurgical samples with high dissolved solids. Enhanced tolerance design.
KIT-ORGANIC — Organic solvents, oil analysis, chemical industry samples. Cooled spray chamber and specialized nebulizer.
ICP-10-3600 + KIT-AQUEOUS
Optimized for general industrial and environmental laboratories. The 160-530 nm range covers all common metallic elements (Fe, Cu, Mn, Cr, Ni, Zn, Pb, Cd) with 9 pm resolution sufficient for most regulatory compliance testing. 2-minute rapid analysis mode supports high sample throughput for routine monitoring.
Application-Specific Recommendations
Environmental Monitoring
ICP-10-2400 + KIT-AQUEOUSFull spectrum coverage for EPA methods requiring alkali metal detection (Na, K in water). 16 pm resolution adequate for diluted environmental matrices. Rapid 2-minute screening for high-volume monitoring stations.
Metal Smelting & Alloys
ICP-10-3600 + KIT-HIGH-SOLIDSEnhanced resolution for precise alloy composition verification. High-solids kit handles concentrated acid digests. Wide dynamic range covers major constituents to trace impurities simultaneously.
Mineral Analysis
ICP-10-4320 + KIT-HIGH-SOLIDSMaximum 7 pm resolution for complex geological matrices with line-rich spectra. Handles rare earth elements and refractory minerals with superior spectral separation.
Food Safety & Agriculture
ICP-10-2400 + KIT-AQUEOUSFull spectrum for nutritional labeling (Na, K, Ca, Mg) and toxic metal screening (Pb, Cd, As). Automated control reduces operator variability for compliance testing.
