Based on flow injection techniques, FIMS is fully automated, fast, and cost-effective. The FIMS uses a high-performance single-beam optical system with a low pressure mercury lamp and solar-blind detector for maximum performance. The FIMS-400 has two stepper motor-driven peristaltic pumps for greater flexibility when used with optional accessories. FIMS is fully controlled from a personal computer using WinLab32 for AA software, a true Microsoft Windows-based program with an unparalleled offering of standard features, including a full range of analytical checks and quality control functions
