Sample introduction: Desolvation |
The PC3 is a compact Peltier Cooled inlet system which incorporates the ESI cyclonic spray chamber . The peltier within the PC3 can be air or water cooled, as such the system can be connected to any ICP-OES or ICP-MS. The PC3 cools the outer walls of the cyclonic spray chamber reducing the water or solvent vapor loading on the plasma resulting in enhanced stability and performance. - Thermal stabilization of spray chamber improves long-term stability
- User-selected control of spray chamber temperature
(+2°C/ -5°C) for aqueous or organic solvents. (Lower temperatures available on request) - Interchangeable quartz, PFA, polypropylene and borosilicate cyclonic spray chambers available.
- Fast rinse-out using PFA-ST nebulizer and O-ring-free quartz cyclonic spray chamber.
- Reduced oxides
- No separate chiller required
- No antifreeze required
- No algae growth
- No water lines
- Robust, with very little maintenance reducing the chance of accidental breakage
- Long lifetime
- Very low maintenance
