Description
Microprocessor Flame Photometer
A Microprocessor Flame Photometer is an advanced analytical instrument used to measure the concentration of sodium (Na), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), and lithium (Li) in solutions. It operates using a microprocessor for enhanced accuracy, automation, and digital data processing.
Working Principle:
- The sample is aspirated into a flame, where metal ions emit characteristic wavelengths of light.
- A detector measures the intensity of emitted light, which is proportional to the ion concentration.
- The microprocessor processes the data and displays the results in ppm or meq/L.
