Agilent Technologies · Model 240FS AA
Reduce your analysis time by determining the concentration of all elements from a single aspiration Reduce sample consumption with less delay throughout analysis and less sample waste Get accurate results by determining 10 elements per sample in less than 2 minutes without sacrificing data quality Improve precision and accuracy with online internal standard corrections for physical differences, sample preparation errors, or drift Simplify your analysis by taking the guess work out of the method development with the SpectrAA comprehensive cookbook Tune your flame AA performance with the Mark 7 atomization system Mark 7 atomization system can achieve high sensitivity – typically greater than 0.9 Abs from 5 mg/L Cu Fast Sequential Mode Fast Sequential (FS) mode on Agilent 240FS and 280FS AA instruments simplify your flame AA analysis, save time and reduce gas consumption. FS mode changes the analysis sequence to measure elements in the same aspiration, rather than only one element at a time in conventional AA, improving the workflow efficiency. Save Time with PROMT Agilent’s 240FS and 280FS AA systems feature PRecision Optimized Measurement Time (PROMT) mode that allows the operator to set the level of precision that they want for sample results. Sample read time is optimized, with high concentration elements requiring less time than low concentration elements for the same level of precision. This increases throughput, prevents wasted time and reduces costly gas consumption without compromising precision.

Symptoms: The laboratory & diagnostics is dead, reboots, or shuts down mid-use.
Root cause: Mains lead / fuse, an aged battery, or a power-supply board fault.
Symptoms: Short run time on battery; low-battery alarm soon after a full charge.
Root cause: Aged rechargeable battery pack or a charger fault.
Symptoms: Blank, dim or distorted display; unresponsive keys or touchscreen.
Root cause: Display, backlight, or control-board fault.
Symptoms: Power-on self-test or the scheduled performance check fails or is out of tolerance.
Root cause: Sensor drift or an internal board fault; recalibration or repair needed.
