SensAA

GBC Scientific Equipment introduces the latest Atomic Absorption Spectrometer, the SensAA. The SensAA is new in every aspect from the ground up - from its performance to its looks and functionality. It may be our low cost AAS but its performace exceeds many top of the range products in the marketplace.

The SensAA offers touch screen technology and true uncompromised multi-element analysis, returning the highest integrity in results at a fraction of the cost of traditional means. A large 15" colour screen allows clarity of use and also ease of inputting data and executing commands to the SensAA software. No more keyboards or mouse wires to get tangled with acidic sample solutions. Designed around simplicity, users no longer need to change lamps when changing elements, enabling seamless operation. Application Source offers dramatic savings in source lamp costs and the high intensity D2 lamp offers unrivalled lifetime performance with enhanced operation of up to 1000 hours, even at full current.

Avanta AAS

A true double-beam spectrometer designed around a modular concept, the Avanta AAS can be configured to exactly meet your analytical and budgetary requirements. The basic instrument includes advanced features such as automatic optimisation of wavelength and slit width and setting of the lamp current. The instrument building blocks include a choice of manual four lamp or automatic eight lamp turret, interlocked or programmable gas control system, automatic burner rotation and SuperLamp power supply. All configurations are controlled by the Avanta Windows® 95/98/NT/XP based software offering the ultimate combination of power and simplicity.

The Avanta Σ AAS

The Avanta Σ (pronounced Avanta Sigma) is our top-of-the-range AAS. It is a state-of-the-art fully automated, multi-element, true double beam instrument with all-reflective optics, and a neat footprint of just 86 x 55 cm.

It is fully computer-controlled, including the burner adjuster, lamp optimization, wavelength and slit setting and gas control, using Windows® 95/98/NT/XP based software.

Avanta Ultra Z

The Avanta Ultra Z combines the longitudinal Zeeman-effect with programmable magnetic field strength, transverse heating of the graphite tube and the latest in surface-mount technology to give a uniquely superior graphite furnace atomic absorption instrument.

The Avanta Ultra Z offers the greatest dynamic range and best detection limits of any zeeman-effect atomic absorption spectrometer. Detection limits that even out perform all axial ICP-OES instruments for crucial elements such as As, Se, Pb, Tl and Sb.
