We present new slab models for quiescent prominences in which both the condition of magnetohydrostatic equilibrium as well as NLTE are fulfilled. Using the Kippenhahn-Schlüter model, a unique relation between the components of the magnetic field on one hand and the gas pressure and width on the other is established for a given uniform temperature. We construct a grid of such NLTE models and compare them with the set of isothermal-isobaric models of Gouttebroze et al. (1993).
