Hollow cathode lamps: Yesterday, today and tomorrow

Agilent single-element lamps are available as either coded or economical uncoded lamps. Coded lamps are element coded for automatic recognition by the Agilent AA instrument, simplifying operation and eliminating the risk of time-consuming errors when changing the lamp position. Uncoded lamps provide the same excellent performance as Agilent coded lamps. Agilent lamps are manufactured in an ISO 9001 environment using the purest cathode materials for optimal lifetime, economical operation, and superb performance. They provide high spectral purity and the extended processing cycle, and unique lamp conditioning procedures ensure minimal lamp warm-up and stable operation.
