This Lumina™ multi-element hollow cathode lamp carries aluminum (Al), calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) in one cathode, so one lamp position serves all 3 elements for flame atomic absorption on the AAnalyst® 200, 300, 400, 600, 700 and 800 and PinAAcle® 500, 900F, 900H, 900T and 900Z atomic absorption spectrometers. Multi-element lamps are for flame work; they are not designed for use in a graphite furnace. Aluminum requires a nitrous oxide-acetylene flame. PerkinElmer application notes give the analytical lines as Aluminum 309.27 nm, Calcium 422.67 nm, Magnesium 285.21 nm.
Like the single-element Lumina lamps it is a 2 in. (50 mm) coded, cableless lamp with a large internal gas volume for long life. When it is slid into the lamp mount or turret of a PinAAcle or AAnalyst™ instrument, the instrument reads the code and sets up the selected element, and on PinAAcle instruments with Syngistix™ software the lamp’s operating hours are recorded automatically. Earlier PerkinElmer AA spectrometers without code reading use it with an Intensitron® adapter cable.
The lamp is warranted to meet its intensity and absorption specifications for six months or 5,000 milliampere-hours, and to light and emit the spectra of the elements indicated for two years or 5,000 milliampere-hours, from the date of shipment.
