Exceptional tolerance to total dissolved solids (TDS):
A smooth nebulizer tip prevents salt accumulation, which allows for enhanced signal stability and the highest TDS tolerance (up to 30%) of all our concentric nebulizer designs.
High chemical resistivity:
Manufactured with a PEEK body and PTFE capillary insert provides excellent compatibility with solvents and acids, including up to 5% HF.
High sensitivity and precision:
The rigidity of the PEEK body allows for manufacturing with high physical reproducibility, resulting in an inert concentric nebulizer design that does not compromise sensitivity and precision for demanding ICP-OES and ICP-MS applications. A comparison of the DuraMist DC with the SeaSpray DC, our worldwide market-leading high performance glass nebulizer, showed that the DuraMist DC gave similar performance.
The following table compares the average intensity and RSD, over a range of elements, for the SeaSpray and DuraMist.
| | Intensity % | RSD % |
| SeaSpray | 100 | 0.23 |
| DuraMist | 87 | 0.28 |
Durability:
In addition to being inert, the rigid PEEK body provides a more durable option compared to PFA nebulizers that are prone to deform over time.
Compatibility:
Available in a 2.0, 1.0 and 0.4 mL/min model, and a direct connection installation, the DuraMist DC nebulizer seamlessly integrates with all ICP-OES and ICP-MS models.
