Introduction
The Avio 200 instrument consists of three major components: the spectrometer, the
ICP Source and the sample introduction system. Each component is further divided
into the different modules described below. This modular system design facilitates
system access, testing and servicing.
For the Avio 200, the two standard sample introduction systems are:
• Baffled cyclonic spray chamber with a Meinhard K1 nebulizer
• Scott spray chamber with a cross flow nebulizer
The spectrometer for the Avio 200 consists of the following modules:
• Optics module
• Spectrometer electronics module
• Spectrometer pneumatics module
The ICP source for the Avio 200 consists of three modules:
• RF generator module
• High voltage power supply module
• Plasma pneumatics module
The sample introduction system for the Avio 200 is comprised of:
• A Quick-Change Adjustable Torch Module
• Spray chamber and nebulizer
• Peristaltic pump for the sample and drain
