Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS)
AELAB offers Flame, Graphite Furnace and Integrated Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer systems for routine elemental analysis and trace metal determination.
Compare AAS configurations based on your sample type, target elements, concentration range and required analytical sensitivity.
What Is an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer?
An Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer, commonly referred to as AAS or an Atomic Absorption Spectrometer, is used for quantitative determination of metallic and semi-metallic elements in different sample matrices. The appropriate atomization method depends on the concentration range and sensitivity required for the analysis.

Flame AAS or Graphite Furnace AAS?
The most suitable system depends primarily on your expected concentration range, sample matrix and required detection sensitivity.
Choose Flame AAS
Suitable for routine elemental measurements when the target concentration can be measured with flame atomization.
AELAB T8000Choose Graphite Furnace AAS
Suitable for trace and very low concentration measurements where greater analytical sensitivity is required.
AELAB T8001Choose an Integrated AAS System
Suitable for laboratories that require both routine Flame AAS and high-sensitivity Graphite Furnace analysis.

Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer FAQ
What is an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer used for?
An Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer is used for quantitative determination of metallic and semi-metallic elements in different sample matrices.
What is the difference between Flame AAS and Graphite Furnace AAS?
Flame AAS is generally suited to routine elemental analysis, while Graphite Furnace AAS provides greater sensitivity for trace and low-concentration measurements.
Which AAS configuration should I choose?
The appropriate configuration depends on your sample type, target elements, expected concentration range and required detection sensitivity.
Can one Atomic Absorption Spectrometer include both Flame and Graphite Furnace?
Yes. The AELAB T8001S integrates Flame and Graphite Furnace atomization in one system for laboratories requiring both routine and trace analysis.
Can AELAB recommend an AAS model for my application?
Yes. Provide your sample or material type, target elements if known, and your analytical requirements so the available AAS configurations can be compared.
