If you are using a 4100 MP-AES, ensure a standard glass
concentric nebulizer, a single pass spray chamber and 4100
EasyFit plasma torch are installed. If you are using a 4200 or
4210 MP-AES, ensure the OneNeb nebulizer, double pass spray
chamber and 4200 and 4210 EasyFit torch are installed. Use
manual sampling for both models.
