The document describes the specifications for an atomic absorption spectrophotometer used to analyze trace metals and other elements in water and sediment samples. Key features include the ability to measure multiple elements rapidly from a single sample using 4 or more lamp positions. It must be PC-controlled with automatic wavelength selection and calibration. Safety features automatically shut down gases if a flame is not detected. The system includes an integrated flame and graphite furnace with autosampler capable of analyzing up to 50 samples per hour. Required accessories include lamps, gases, regulators, and a 2-year supply of recommended consumables.
