ATI ICP-OES Water Analysis

ATI Laboratory Analysis Ultimate combines ICP-OES and ICP-MS to give you the highest accuracy in all areas and our most comprehensive analysis. With the ATI Laboratory Analysis Ultimate you benefit from numerous Advantages:

• Higher accuracy and significantly lower detection limits down to the ultra-trace range through ICP-MS (e.g. manganese, selenium, vanadium, arsenic etc.) - Detection element-specific down to 0.001 µg/l possible (cf. detection limit ICP-OES 0.5 - 3.5 µg/l depending on element)
• Earlier detection of pollutants: Enables faster reactions to avoid problems
• Expanded element portfolio (so-called MS trace elements* and MS contaminants*): Rubidium, neodymium, zirconium, etc.
• Double validated results: Many values are measured with both ICP-OES and ICP-MS and checked for plausibility. Measurement errors can therefore be ruled out even more reliably
• Expanded element portfolio (so-called MS trace elements* and MS impurities*): rubidium, neodymium, zirconium and many more
• The most suitable measurement method is used for each water value - e.g. bulk elements with ICP-OES, trace and ultra-trace elements with ICP-MS.

Depending on the version of the test, the analysis values include the following:

• Salinity (salt content in PSU)
• KH (=carbonate hardness / alkalinity)
• Nutrients: nitrogen / nitrate, phosphorus / phosphate
• Quantity elements: Sodium, calcium, chloride, magnesium, sulphur, potassium, bromine, strontium, boron, fluorine
• OES trace elements: Barium, beryllium, iron, iodine, lithium, molybdenum, silver, silicon
• OES pollutants: aluminum, antimony, bismuth, cadmium, lanthanum, thallium, titanium, tungsten
• MS trace elements*: Arsenic, chromium, cobalt, copper, manganese, nickel, rubidium, selenium, vanadium, zinc, tin
• MS pollutants*: Lead, neodymium, niobium, zirconium, indium, germanium, gallium, mercury, tellurium
