High performance in ICP-OES
ULTIMA 2 ICP Optical Emission Spectrometer
combines simplicity and high performance
ULTIMA 2 is based on a versatile platform
to match actual and future needs of your
laboratory. The knowledge of HORIBA Scientific
in manufacturing ICP-OES and high quality
optics were combined to provide the highest
performance in ICP-OES.
ULTIMA 2 is the only instrument able to provide
an analytical answer for almost any matrix.
RESOLUTION
The one meter focal length monochromator
associated with the high density holographic
grating and advanced PMT detection offers
the best resolution achievable. Less than 5
picometers are achieved in the 160-320 nm
range and less than 10 picometers in the 320800 nm range. Resolution shortens the time
needed for method development, even for
difficult matrices.

SENSITIVITY
The total plasma view concept, using a vertical
torch and radial viewing with the measurement
of the whole Normal Analytical Zone allows
running the most difficult matrices with the
highest performance due to low matrix effects
and enhanced sensitivity. Radial viewing
reduces matrix effects, simplifying the analysis
and improving detection limits in real samples.

•The 2400 g/mm holographic grating used in
the 1st and the 2nd orders offers constant
spectral resolution and full wavelength
coverage over the spectral range. The
optical resolution is less than 5 pm in the
160-320 nm range and less than 10 pm in
the 320-800 nm range. Using the optional
dual back-to-back gratings (4320 g/mm and
2400 g/mm used in the 1st order) allows an
optical resolution of less than 6 pm in the
160-430 nm range and less than 10 pm in
the 430-800 nm range.
•
The dual PMT detection system offers
optimum sensitivity according to the
wavelength range. Optional Far UV detector
allows reaching high sensitivity down to
120 nm.
Unique PMT technology dedicated to ICP-OES
High precision can be obtained using the true
simultaneous measurement of an internal
standard, only available with PMT detectors.
This measurement can be done on a dedicated
reference monochromator or on the optional
polychromator.

Intensity (c/s)
ULTIMA 2 is equipped with the patented High
Dynamic Detection system, exclusively
available from HORIBA Scientific. The dynamic
range is enhanced, with up to 10 orders of
magnitude. The adjustment of the gain is done
within milliseconds without hysteresis, allowing
full spectrum acquisition in less than 3 minutes.
Measurement of trace and major elements is
possible in a single run for qualitative and semiquantitative analysis purposes using optional
Image Navigator.
The use of PMT detection provides unique
advantages such as UV sensitivity without
any coating of the detector that can reduces
lifetime. Detection of halogens and alternative
lines in the Far UV has never been so easy.
The high sensitivity of PMT detectors reduces
analysis time by using short integration times,
even for trace analysis.

Normalized Intensity
The design of ULTIMA 2 allows reduced matrix
effects, high sensitivity and enhanced stability,
even with difficult matrices. To obtain this high
level of performance, every component has
been optimized to its best. The original sheath
gas device, the 3 mm i.d. injector, the vertical
torch with radial viewing and Total Plasma
View concept, the size and quality of optical
components and the detection system. Each
component is integral to the high performance
offered by the ULTIMA 2.
Productivity is ensured by short integration time
due to high sensitivity, by stability avoiding
frequent periodic recalibrations and by high
dynamic range avoiding dilution of the samples.

Image Navigator and CLIP
Qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis with Image Navigator
Image Navigator is used to display the full
spectrum acquired on the ULTIMA 2 and
offers unique features for high resolution ICP
spectrometers thanks to its library containing
over 25 000 lines.
The display of spectra is possible, allowing
careful visual inspection, line selection according
to spectral interferences and comparison of the
fingerprint between several samples.
• Qualitative analysis based on the identification
of the most sensitive lines for each element.
•Semi-quantitative analysis using the library
or a reference spectrum.
As the full spectrum is stored in a file,
retrospective analysis is always possible to
confirm a result or to find the result for other
elements.
CLIP: Collection of Line Intensity Profiles
Line selection is the crucial part of method
development. As high resolution ICP-OES are
often dedicated to the analysis of complex
matrices with more risk of spectral interferences,
this step can be difficult and time consuming.
Using the CLIP will shorten the time needed for
line selection and enhance the reliability of the
resulting method.
CLIP stands for Collection of Line Intensity
Profiles. The CLIP is dedicated to the PMTbased instruments of the ULTIMA 2 Family and
can be used with older instruments.
Using the proprietary ICP-based S3-base
wavelength database, containing wavelengths
and detection limits, allows the analyst to ensure
that lines, sensitivity and relative intensities are
really close to what will be observed on the
instrument. Profiles of each line are calculated
according to the instrument settings (focal
length, slit combinations, grating(s), order
used) and are displayed.
As the display allows the analyst to look at each
individual spectrum and also at the total
spectrum, he can easily validate a line for the
analysis.
More-over, the display of the various slit
combinations can validate the best combination
that can be used. The CLIP, based on theoretical
calculations of the profiles reduces the need to
prepare various solutions and to perform many
profiles.
The benefits of CLIP are:
`` Help for line selection
This is an efficient tool to select lines for analysis
in complex matrices and to select the optimum
slit combination.
`` Save time
It reduces the time needed for method
development due to reduced solutions
preparation and reduced time for profiling lines.
`` Allows you access to new markets
The method development for new applications
is easy and fast
