The Sherwood Clinicall Model 410 Flame photometer directly measures Alkali and Alkaline Earth metals Sodium (Na), Potassium (K) and Lithium (Li) by means of a low temperature flame using propane, butane or Natural gas.

 

Additional filters for Caesium (Cs), Rubidium (Rb) and Strontium (Sr) and Calcium (Ca) are available. Please contact our sales office for pricing information.

 

Available in three formats:

Classic – Fitted with Na, K and Ca filters

Industrial – Fitted with Na, K and Li filters and a digital interface/linearisation module

Clinical – Fitted with Na, K and Li filters and a digital interface/linearisation module

 

The measurement of clinical samples with the Model 410 Clinical Flame Photometer can be semi-automated by means of the Model 805 Clinical Diluter. For clinical samples, ease of use is enhanced by the Sodium lineariser. This enables clinically signi_cant concentrations to be displayed in mmol/l without the need to prepare a standard curve. The Model 805 Clinical Diluter is ideal for diluting such samples; dilution ratios are 200:1 for serum Na and K and 50:1 for Lithium.

Both the Clinical and Industrial Model 410 Flame Photometers can be connected to a PC via the RS232 output of the digital interface. If 410 BlueNotes software is purchased the 410 can then be turned into a fully automated package with the addition of a Model 860 autosampler which can be controlled via 410 BlueNotes software

System Requirements:

A source of clean dry pulse-free compressed air at a pressure of 12-15 psi is essential, Sherwood recommends the Model 851 Compressor.  These Flame Photometers will run on Butane, Propane, a mixture of the two, or Natural gas. A primary regulator at the gas source is required. The secondary regulator is built-in to the Flame Photometer.

This equipment will only operate with the correct type of air compressor and gas regulator, as specified

Technical Specification:

Sensitivity: To display minimum of 100 units, Na <0.5 ppm, K <0.5 ppm, Li 5 ppm, Ca* 5 ppm, Ba* 200 ppm.

Specificity: For Na, K, Li interference is less than 0.5% of the concentration of Na, K, Li, Ca* or Ba*, equal to the concentration under analysis.

Linearity: Better than 2% mid-range with Na=3ppm, K=3ppm, or Li=5ppm.

Drift: (To be measured after 30 mins warm up): Zero Drift better than 2% per hour when calibrated with Na=10ppm.

Reproducibility: < 1 % CV from the same Bulk sample for 20 determinations at Na and K=10ppm.

Limit of Detection: <20 ppb Na and K.

Time to Stability: Aspirate for 20 sec.

Aspiration Rate: Variable 2-6 ml/min.

*These filters are not supplied with the unit and need to be purchased separately.
