Abstract
NGC 6803 is an elliptical ring shape planetary nebula. We analyzed the high dispersion spectra which had been observed with the Hamilton Echelle Spectrograph attached to the 3-m Shane telescope of Lick Observatory. We also investigated the low dispersion UV spectral data obtained with the 60-cm interstellar ultraviolet explorer. Diverse excitation lines were found from neutral to quadruply ionized ions. The temperature diagnostic lines indicate relatively low electron temperatures, i.e.,
