The MS-1104E spectrometer is characterized by high performance and accuracy of Mössbauer measurements achieved through the use of “compressed” geometry, as well as the use of highly efficient and selective resonant scintillation detection units that improve the energy resolution of resonance absorption lines by up to 30%. The technique of software and hardware stabilization of the spectrometric path developed and used in the spectrometer allows for long-term Mossbauer measurements without manual adjustment. The method of modulation in the specified speed intervals can significantly increase the sensitivity and expressiveness of measurements and reduce the time to determine the magnitude of the effects of resonant absorption by tens of times in the study of temperature phase transitions with a low concentration of resonant elements. The electronic components of the spectrometer are developed on the basis of a modern element base using programmable logic matrices and microprocessors. Adjustable spectrometric paths and high-voltage power supplies of the PMU are integrated into detection units, modulator driver modules and multi-channel storage are made in the ISA standard and are located in the processor unit of the computer. Setting and monitoring of all parameters of the spectrometer and processing of the measured spectra is carried out from the operating windows of the control and processing programs. Since 2000, more than ten spectrometers of this type have been supplied to leading scientific organizations in Russia and neighboring countries. One of the few industrial applications of Mössbauer spectroscopy should be noted - the development and supply to the Volgodonsk NPP of certified MS-1104Em methods and spectrometer for monitoring corrosion processes in the heat exchange circuits of the VVER-1000 reactor.

The spectrometer was created according to the Cherni-Turner scheme based on a flat diffraction grating and an MAES analyzer with one line of photodetectors. It has increased photometric accuracy due to cooling and temperature stabilization of the photodetector range, as well as due to its shell-less design, in which there is no re-reflection of radiation on the cover glass and the background level in the recorded spectrum decreases. The optical scheme and design of the spectrometer are optimized to obtain a high-quality spectrum with a low level of background radiation in any of the regions lying in the spectral range of 190-1100 nm. The choice of the working area is carried out by changing and rotating the diffraction gratings. The sealed case of the spectrometer is filled with an inert gas. The radiation is injected into the spectrometer using a quartz capacitor or a fiber-optic cable with an SMA-905 connector. The optical scheme and design of the spectrometer are protected by patents.

The installation is designed to excite atomic emission spectra of powder samples in an electric arc by the spillage-injection method. It provides high performance of routine analyses, has a low consumption of graphite electrodes and is used in conjunction with any spectral devices – "Grand", STE-1, DFS-458, MFS-8, PGS-2, etc.

The spectrometer is designed to measure the intensities of analytical lines of chemical elements and, by recalculating them, determine the mass concentration of elements from P(15) to U(92) contained in the analyzed sample. The process of analysis from a set of data and their processing to obtaining results in the form of a table of concentrations of the elements being determined is automated and performed using a personal computer. The spectrometer can be used in various fields of science and technology (ecology, biology, medicine, agriculture, food industry, geology, mining, geophysics, sanitary and epidemiological control, etc.).

The main advantage of a mobile spectrometer is the ability to measure the composition of alloys not only in the laboratory on specially prepared samples, but also directly in a workshop or warehouse without cutting the product or workpiece.

The dual-view plasma spectrometer can record any spectral line simultaneously at high resolution in the concentration range from fractions of ppb up to tens of percent and offers a wide range of options for any research task. Designed for the analysis of almost any type of environmental samples – water, soil, precipitation. Quick switching to work. It does not require a long warm-up. Low argon consumption. Easy to use.

Vacuum spectrometers are designed for rapid analysis of alloys based on iron, copper, aluminum and other metals in factory and research laboratories, including the determination of elements having analytical lines in the field of vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) (for example, S, P and C in steels).

The flame spectrometer is designed for rapid determination of a wide range of concentrations (up to 8 orders of magnitude) of sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, barium, caesium, rubidium in technological solutions. The excitation of atoms occurs in an air-acetylene flame. The device consists of a three-slit burner with flame control, a pneumatic sprayer, a spray chamber, an optical radiation input system into the "Hummingbird-2" spectrometer and an automatic air and acetylene supply system, with the possibility to control and adjust gas flow. The use of a three-slit burner provides increased flame temperature over the central slit of the burner due to the external flame layers. This makes it possible to determine low concentrations of calcium and barium. At the same time, it remains the possibility to determine impurities in highly concentrated solutions without clogging the burner slots. The lighting system of the spectrometer is mirror-lens, thanks to this, radiation collected from both sides of the burner is introduced into the polychromator.

The advantage of the system using a closed-cycle helium cooling unit from Helix Technology Corporation (USA) is the ability to provide low measurement temperatures (up to 10 K) without loss of consumables (helium) with a compact arrangement of equipment. Isolation of the studied absorber from vibration associated with the operation of the compressor is ensured by ensuring heat exchange of the absorber with the cooling head of the unit through an intermediate layer of helium gas and by careful vibration isolation of the systems of the Mossbauer spectrometer, minimizing additional broadening of the spectrum lines during operation of the cooling unit. All modes and characteristics of the MS-1104Em Mossbauer spectrometer are preserved at the same time.

The spectrometer is designed to determine the contents of elements in the range from Ca to U in substances in solid, powdery, dissolved states, as well as deposited on the surface or deposited on filters. The principle of operation of the spectrometer is based on irradiation of the sample with primary radiation from an X-ray tube, measurement of the intensity of secondary fluorescent radiation from the sample at wavelengths corresponding to the elements being determined, and subsequent calculation of the mass fraction of these elements according to a pre-constructed calibration characteristic, which is the dependence of the content of the element being determined on the measured intensity. Secondary fluorescent radiation is decomposed into a spectrum using a crystal analyzer. Due to this, the spectrometer has a high resolution, and therefore the ability to accurately analyze complex multicomponent substances.
