The productivity demands of environmental labs working to EPA methodology such as 200.7 for the determination of metals and trace elements in water, solids and biosolids are met using synchronous dual view ICP-OES. The instrumentation achieves an excellent sample-to-sample cycle time of 58 seconds. This enables more samples to be measured each day and reduces argon consumption per sample by 50% per sample.
