Product overview
The BWB SFP (Special Flame Photometer) is BWB's route for applications that standard models do not cover. Detectors for sodium, potassium, lithium, calcium, caesium and barium can be combined, and customers work with BWB engineers to define the instrument, its calibration curves and its calibration solutions.
BWB cites a supplier of high-purity lithium that uses a customised SFP alongside its ICP and AAS instruments, and a co-development project with an oil and gas company for online measurement. Options include a left- or right-hand chimney, custom calibration solutions with up to 14 points, client-defined units of measure, an internal reference standard, an optional collection cup for live readings and compatibility with the AFHS autosampler.
As with other BWB models, the SFP includes a built-in air compressor, USB data sharing through FP-PC, analogue and optional 4-20 mA outputs and an integrated printer. Box contents are agreed with each customer.
