Description
The refurbished Agilent 240FS AA (Fast Sequential) is a high-performance
flame atomic absorption spectrometer designed for laboratories that demand speed, efficiency, and reliability. Its fast sequential, multi-element capability enables the analysis of multiple elements from a single sample aspiration within minutes—significantly reducing analysis time and sample consumption.
Equipped with advanced features such as Fast Sequential (FS) mode, automatic lamp selection, D₂ background correction, programmable gas control, and the high-sensitivity Mark 7 atomization system, the 240FS AA delivers consistently accurate and reproducible results. This makes it an excellent choice for high-throughput applications in environmental monitoring, food safety, and agricultural laboratories.
Core Technical Features and Performance Characteristics Agilent 240FS AA:
Fast Sequential (FS) Operating Mode: Enables sequential multi-element determination from a single sample aspiration, significantly reducing total analysis time and minimizing sample consumption.
High Analytical Throughput: Capable of quantifying up to 10 elements per sample within less than two minutes.
Analytical Accuracy and Precision: Incorporates online internal standard correction to compensate for instrumental drift and improve data integrity.
Streamlined Method Development: Supported by the comprehensive SpectrAA method library (“cookbook”), facilitating rapid and reproducible method setup.
Automatic Lamp Selection: Integrated multi-lamp turret with automatic switching, supporting up to four hollow cathode lamps for unattended multi-element operation.
Deuterium (D₂) Background Correction: Effectively compensates for non-specific absorption and matrix-related interferences.
Mark 7 Atomization System: High-efficiency burner and nebulizer design delivering excellent sensitivity, typically achieving absorbance values >0.9 Abs for 5 mg/L Cu.
Programmable Gas Control Module: Allows precise optimization of flame composition and operating conditions for different analytes.
Operational Efficiency: Lower operating costs achieved through reduced gas consumption and minimized sample usage.
How does the Agilent 240FS AA work?
Fast Sequential (FS) mode on the Agilent 240FS and 280FS AA instruments makes flame AA analysis faster, simpler, and more efficient. Instead of measuring one element at a time, FS mode allows multiple elements to be analyzed from a single sample aspiration, significantly improving workflow efficiency while reducing analysis time and gas consumption.
The Agilent 240FS and 280FS AA instruments are designed with built-in technology that enables FS mode without the need for additional accessories.
Using FS mode, up to 10 elements can be measured in less than two minutes using only 10 mL of sample.
