AELAB AE-FP Series Flame Photometer – Elemental Analysis for K, Na, Li, Ca, Ba

Overview

The AELAB AE-FP Series Flame Photometer is designed for analyzing and measuring the content and concentration of elements K, Na, Li, Ca, and Ba across agricultural, industrial, chemical, food, environmental, and clinical laboratories. It incorporates multi-element filter channels, automated correlation coefficient calculations, flame safety features, and a clear LCD interface for streamlined quantitative cation determination.

With optional 2–5 element configurations, the AE-FP Series supports straight-line, polygon, and quadratic curve calibration, providing high reproducibility and accurate response within < 8 seconds. The instrument includes a mist separator, pressure gauge, flame-out protection, and RS232 data interface.

⚙️ Design & Construction

The AELAB AE-FP Series integrates a robust flame photometric module with a spray chamber, observation window, waste container, chimney parts, and a Liquefied Petroleum Gas interface. The system uses dedicated filters for K, Na, Li, Ca, and Ba. The LCD screen and numeric keypad provide direct operational control. A pressure-reducing valve, moisture separator, and adjustable flame size knob support safe, stable operation. The air supply is driven by an integrated or external oil-free air compressor (20–23 L/min, 0–6 Bar range).

🔬 Working Principle / Testing Method

The AE-FP Series quantifies cations by aspirating the sample into a controlled flame where atoms emit element-specific wavelengths. The instrument detects these emissions via matched optical filters and converts them into concentration values using preloaded calibration curves. Automated coefficient calculations, multi-point calibration (up to 10 points in AE-FP8201-B), and selectable curve-fitting algorithms ensure accurate potassium, sodium, lithium, calcium, and barium determination.

💡 Key Advantages

• Multi-element detection with 2, 3, 4, or 5-element filter configurations.
