Some of the characteristics of an Ebert 34 m plane grating spectrograph have been examined in order to ascertain the optimum conditions for its use in quantitative spectrographic analysis. Of special interest were the higher order; not conveniently reached by many spectrographs produced for general analytical work. A limitation on the use of high dispersions when the dc arc or ac spark is employed as the excitation source is discussed
