OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETRY (OES)

Q6 NEWTON

High Performance benchtop Spark Spectrometer for metal analysis

Performance and Reliability by Design

Ease-of-use and flexibility at heart

Fast, Reliable and Always Ready

< 20 s
Measurement time with high precision
State-of-the-art HighSenseTM detection technology delivers ultrafast measurements with superior limits of detection at uncompromised precision.
± 0.2 °C
RockSteadyTM temperature stability
The active thermal stability control and insulation, maintains the optics temperature precisely at their ideal set point. This translates into analytical stability in a wide ambient temperature range, fast operational readiness and minimized energy consumption.
2 optical Systems
Parallel MultiVisionTM
The parallel MultiVisionTM optical concept employs two high resolution optics simultaneously: one vacuum ultra violet (VUV) optic, and one visible light optic (UV/VIS). Each equipped with RockSteadyTM thermal stabilization and HighSenseTM detectors.

Q6 NEWTON – Build to Last

The Q6 NEWTON is the superior OES solution for metallurgists and technicians to analyze alloy composition of metals. HighSenseTM detection technology, SmartSparkTM source, and RockSteadyTM, the active thermal stability control, are the key elements to achieve ultimate precision, speed, and reliability in metals analysis. One push of a SmartButton unleashes the power of the Q6 NEWTON and provides lightning-fast measurements, excellent precision and accuracy, combined with extremely low detection limits at 24/7 operation.

The new Argon distribution system ensures the most stable and economical way to feed the two ArgonShield’s, the electrode co-axial flow, and the VUV-spectrometer. Intelligent Argon saving routines reduce gas consumption up to 40% compared to similar spectrometers. The low maintenance spark stand comes with a large and robust sample stage, making correct positioning of bulky samples easy, while an automated sample clamp ensures optimal sample contact and hassle-free operation without giving up flexibility.
