ProdigyPlus
ProdigyPlus High Dispersion ICP
Spectrometer
All the capability you’ll ever need in an ICP. From basic
applications to the most complex research task,
Prodigy Plus delivers results.

Prodigy Plus combines the latest in solid state detector

technology with Leeman Labs’ advanced high dispersion
Echelle spectrometer to provide the most powerful ICP available
today. Not only does Prodigy Plus provide superb resolution,
stability and detection limits for reliable results, it was designed
for a wide variety of optional features that are guaranteed to
enhance the capabilities of your inorganic analysis lab.
Advantages of the ProdigyPlus
The Prodigy Plus is the synthesis of advanced
technology and user simplicity. The summation of
years of refinement, the Prodigy Plus has distinct
advantages over other ICPs:
• Large Format , CMOS-based , Advanced
Solid-State Array Detector
• Full Wavelength Coverage from 165 – 1100 nm
(130 - 1100 nm with Halogen Option)
• 800 mm, Low Stray-Light Optics
• Full Frame Imaging Captures Entire ICP Spectrum
At Once
• Available in Radial, Axial and Dual View
Configurations
• Application-Specific Sample Introduction Systems
• Built-in Scheduled Maintenance Monitor
 State of the Art
CMOS Detector
Designed specifically for ICP-OES and exclusive to Leeman Labs, the CMOS
Detector achieves the following technological benchmarks:
• Largest in the industry (28 mm x 28 mm)
• Contains 3.38 million pixels
• Capable of capturing the entire ICP spectrum in a single exposure at a
speed 40x faster than older, less advanced devices.
• Large signals will not spill into adjacent pixels due to inherently
anti-blooming design.
The end result is high sample throughput, greater linearity, and the ability
to determine the concentration of any element with a single acquisition.

“Savings can be attained from high sample throughput and

low argon gas consumption features.”

Cost of Ownership
Its high on your list of what makes a
great ICP, so we built the Prodigy Plus to
be efficient from the inside out. It begins
in the heart of the ICP; its detector:
• 2 MHz data transfer speed downloads
sample results in less than one second
• Advanced detector does not use
“pre-shots” to sort wavelengths by
intensity into various timing groups
• Large detector size allows all
wavelengths to be measured with
a single reading
Faster detector readings result in
more samples run in less time. Compared with older detector designs, the Prodigy Plus’ CMOS detector has

High Performance
Optical System
The time-tested Prodigy Plus optical system is a perfect complement to
the advanced detector. The 800 mm focal length system uses toroidal
optics to deliver unmatched image quality and insures the highest possible
resolution at all wavelength positions. The simple design uses a rigid cast
aluminum optical box to provide excellent analytical stability, while the
absence of moving parts ensures exceptional service life and trouble
free operation.

The Prodigy Plus’ long focal length

spectrometer, which is 2 times
greater than other array-based ICPs,
provides lower stray-light and superior
performance when analyzing real-
world samples.

CMOS Detector Designed for ICP-OES

Exclusive to Leeman Labs, the CMOS
detector represents the next generation
in simultaneous solid state devices for
ICP-OES. At 28 mm x 28 mm, it is the
largest detector available in the industry.
Its 3.38 million pixels are capable of
capturing the entire ICP spectrum with
a single exposure.

Report with Confidence

Prodigy Plus consistently delivers measurements with the accuracy and precision you require and your clients demand. Results are
supported by instrumental condition verification, validation of calculations used and backed with tamper proof storage.

Radial, Axial or Dual View

The Prodigy Plus’ Echelle design is ideally suited to allow observation of the plasma in the radial,
axial or dual view modes without the need for the complex mirror systems required by other ICPs. Fewer optical surfaces translates
to more light throughput.
Dual View instruments combine the best features of axial and radial viewing and provide the ability to analyze virtually any sample
for ultra-trace, trace and major elements without the need for multiple sample dilution.
ProdigyPlus Software
Prodigy Plus’ software is designed to fully control the analytical process—from Method Development to the Final Report
Generation—providing the right amount of capability and flexibility, without complexity, for every operator. All aspects of
instrument operation are automated, including all plasma and sample introduction parameters, QC Controls, and system
diagnostics. The computer controlled ICP source mirror in combination with the simplicity of the Twist-Lock sample
introduction system takes the guess work out of torch alignment and positioning.

Select the Method Create Sequence Report Data

With the Prodigy Plus, running samples is simple: Prodigy Plus’ software also allows the user to:
• Select the Method • Recall and reuse previous calibration data to recalculate
• Introduce the Sample(s) alone or via autosampler results by adding a new chapter to the method

• Analyze the samples • Track all changes made to a method since its creation

• Report the Data • Export real-time data in a customized CSV format

Accessories
Autosamplers
Everyone’s day-to-day needs differ. Some labs only need
to analyze a few samples per day while some must analyze
hundreds. Some labs analyze the same samples types over
and over while others must be prepared to analyze a very
wide variety.

Teledyne Leeman Labs recognizes not all needs are the

same and offers a full range of accessories and consumables
designed to optimize your Prodigy Plus experience and
maximize your productivity. Options include Teledyne
CETAC autosamplers, application specific nebulizers, spray
