Adjust the wavelength in the region of 214,3 nm to minimum absorbance. Following manufacturers instructions, fit the correct burner, light the flame and
45、 allow the burner temperature to stabilize. The flame shall be set-up on oxidising conditions. Taking careful note of the manufacturers instructions regarding the minimum flow rate of acetylene, aspirate the calibration solution of highest concentration of analyte and adjust the burner configuration
46、 and gas flows to obtain maximum absorbance. 7.4.3 Spectrometric measurement Aspirate the series of calibration solutions (7.4.1) in succession into the flame and measure the absorbance for each solution. Take care to keep the of aspiration rate constant throughout the preparation of the calibration
47、 curve. Spray water through the burner after each measurement (see NOTE). NOTE For certain types of spectrometer, instead of water it is preferable to use a solution containing the attack reagents, in the same concentrations as in the test portion solutions. 7.4.4 Calibration curve Establish the cal
