Low-cost IR grows up. Introducing the 1300 Series.

The 1300 Series brings you a new generation of low-cost IR instruments with the highest performance/price ratio available anywhere today. It's ideal for

education, quality control, general routine use, and more.

Shown here with the optional Perkin-Elmer Data Station, it makes everything else in economy infrared spectrophotometers look primitive.

Its traditions go back to the Infracord,® a 1957 classic that established Perkin-Elmer as the leader in low-cost IR. Many

Infracords are still in use today. The 1300 Series not only costs

less than its nearest competitor, but brings you more advantages of today's microprocessor technology.

For example, the abscissa functions are microprocessor-controlled, ensuring excellent wavelength accuracy.

With the color-coded keyboard, selecting routine scans is simple, slit programs are linked to scan times and the Perkin-Elmer Auto-Chek® gain is standard. All resulting in simple operation and accurate analysis.

An optional parameter "GO TO" memory feature lets you store up to 30 sets of parameters—frequency, slit width, and gain—allowing you to scan only the peaks of interest.

You can take full advantage of the automatic features of the 1300 Series by adding the Perkin-Elmer Infrared Data Station. All functions of the instrument are fully addressable from the Data Station keyboard. With the Data Station software, you can manipulate data, overlay spectra for comparison on the video screen, search a library to identify a sample, and determine the amount of its unknown components.

Instantly —in seconds—you can choose the best atomic spectroscopy technique for your analysis. With the versatile, new Perkin-Elmer ICP/5000 System, you can perform ICP, flame AA and graphite furnace AA interchangeably, on the first automated, sequential, multielement instrument of its kind.

Because each element is determined individually, each analysis has its own unique set of optimal conditions. In contrast, a conventional simultaneous instrument determines many elements all at once: you need to find conditions that apply equally well to all of the analytes. The ICP/5000 System however imposes no compromises.

Each technique has special advantages

Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) emission is best for determining up to 20 elements per sample and for refractory elements such as boron, uranium, phosphorus, tantalum and tungsten at sub-milligram/ liter levels.

Flame AA delivers a faster analytical throughput when you're determining six elements or less.

and achieves the best precision possible with atomic spectroscopy.

Graphite furnace AA is best for trace analysis (it has outstanding detection limits for most elements], and when sample quantity is limited.

Exceptional performance throughout

Whatever the technique, the ICP/ 5000 System performs like the leader it is. With ICP emission, high spectral resolution minimizes spectral line overlaps. The blazed holographic UV grating reduces stray light levels to a minimum. A dynamic correction technique, supervised by an external data system, accurately performs background compensation.

And because the monochrom-ator can be purged to permit work in the far UV range, you'll be able to determine sulfur at 180.7 nm and phosphorus at 177.5 nm.

For atomic absorption, you get all of the proven capabilities of our revolutionary Model 5000 AA Spectrophotometer, the microprocessor-controlled instrument around which we built the ICP/5000 System. The graphite furnace is our Model HGA-500. And there are microprocessor-controlled autosamplers for both flame and furnace.

Flexible and convenient You can switch from ICP to AA in two seconds. Simply turn a knob.

The external data system used with the ICP/5000 System has function keys, not computer codes, to control setup and operation. It also guides the user through the analysis by instructions appearing on the CRT.

Because this is a sequential ICP system, the selection of elements that can be determined is not limited. So you can accommodate any matrix and select different analyte-lines for each element as required.

Finally, if you now have our Model 5000 AA Spectrophotometer, it can be expanded easily into an ICP/5000 System.

Everything you need You can be sure of complete backup —service, training and support —in fulfilling the potential of your ICP/5000 System from Perkin-Elmer, the leader in atomic spectroscopy.

Get tomorrow's lab today with distributed laboratory data processing. You take a step into the future when you connecta Perkin-Elmer Data Station to an analytical instrument.

The turnkey software controls routine analyses, processes the data, and stores it. And all the while, you're free to attend to more important work. Results are on hand when you want them.

But the biggest transformation comes when you interface Perkin-Elmer Data Stations with a central computer. At once, you have a full-scale system. A computerized laboratory. With the Data Stations each handling separate instrumentsandseparateanalyses, distributed laboratory data processing makes all the information immediately available, and productivity soars.

Convenient and easy to use. Just by itself, a Perkin-Elmer Data Station brings you the ultimate in convenience. You don't have to be a computer expert. It acts on simple keystroke instructions. Communicates in simple language. An intelligent Data Station, it not only stores information but carries the turnkey software Perkin-Elmer provides for different analytical techniques. Atomic Spectroscopy. Infrared. Thermal Analysis. Ultraviolet/Visible. Gas Chromatography and Liquid Chromatography.

It's also totally flexible. In or out of a system, it functions as a standalone unit. You can program it yourself to support your instruments or to help solve scientific or laboratory management problems. Even customize Perkin-Elmer's turnkey software. With its local control, the Data Station can fully automate an analysis and deliver results graphically. And give you the reliability of data integrity and security, plus immediate feedback without dependence on the central computer.

The heart of the system. A Perkin-Elmer Data Station is also designed to function as the key unit in a computerized system. It conveys information in both direct ions-to and from the host, and to

and from the analytical instrument it controls.

With full access to mass storage, the Data Station not only performs data acquisition and retrieval, but provides file management as well. You can reprocess and manipulate stored data both locally and with the host. What's more, a Perkin-Elmer Data Station is ready to fit into an expanding system at any time.

The bottom line—productivity. All this convenience, flexibility and reliability in a Perkin-Elmer Data Station adds up to a new high in productivity for your lab. You get local instrument control, data acquisition and programming, along with mass storage, file management, post-run calculations, graphics and data manipulation — all in a simple, compact, easy-to-use unit.
