Abstract

A Polyvac E980 (Hilger Analytical) photoelectric vacuum optical emission spectrometer has been modified with a multichannel analyzer of emission spectra (MAES). The line of argon supply to the spark stand has been completely renewed. A precision mass flow controller with a microprocessor control unit has been installed to adjust the argon supply for different operation modes and fix the current values with the possibility of saving data for each spectrum. The microprocessor control unit coordinates the operation of the control lines and interrupts the operation of the spark generator when the stand is open or argon is absent. The modified vacuum spark spectrometer, originally designed for the analysis of iron-based alloys, has become suitable for determining the composition of non-ferrous alloys. Analytical programs have been developed for the rapid spectral analysis of AK12M2 and AK9ch aluminum alloys. The main methodological difficulty of the analysis is attributed to the necessity of monitoring high concentrations of silicon, copper, and iron along with the content of calcium impurity in the same sample. Calcium has a negative effect on the quality of castings, thus making the possibility of Ca determination an important motivation for the modification. After the preparatory work and the construction of calibration curves, the short-term and long-term repeatability of the results of spectral analysis of standard samples of aluminum alloys has been studied on the modified spectrometer. The results completely meet the standard requirements for determining the composition of aluminum alloys.
