Performance test specifications and typical values
This section details the analytical performance tests and specifications for the instruments
fitted with the standard components supplied with each instrument.
The document covers test methods and solutions together with acceptable analytical
performance limits. The tests assume all checks & alignment procedures required during
instrument testing are complete.
Analytical Tests
This test completes an analytical performance suite of tests by running the multi element
standard and blank, then running the standard as a sample. The tests are run from the: "Tests"
tab in the "Instrument" window.
The data obtained from the tests is used to calculate SBR and also measures short term
precision and calibration accuracy.
• Check that the nebulizer flows are set to the optimum values in the worksheet.
• Ensure adequate delay time for each solution before pressing "READ".
• Ensure adequate rinsing (60 sec) after the standard solution.
Resolution
This test measures the peak width of a suite of analytical lines distributed over the surface of
the chip and compares them to a specification. This test requires an analysis to be run using the
worksheet 'ICP-OES Resolution' or 'ICP-OES Resolution' and the multi element standard and
