The Buck Scientific 230ATS Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer is designed for simple, efficient, and reliable elemental analysis. The system includes three powered lamp brackets inside the instrument and can be upgraded with optional D2 background correction for improved analytical performance. It features a 10-inch color touchscreen, automated wavelength setting, automated slit selection, push-button ignition, and a compact, robust steel and aluminum build.

The 230ATS uses Buck Scientific’s high-energy optical design to provide strong sensitivity and lower detection limits. Its optimized nebulizer-burner system is designed to handle challenging sample types, including samples with high total dissolved solids or higher viscosity, while maintaining stable flame sample introduction.
