Detail:
Argon Snout Tube
Argon Snout tube, Nitrogen is a specialized glass or quartz consumable used with the ARL 3400/3500 Accuris Mini Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) spectrometer. It is designed to facilitate gas purging, which prevents oxygen from entering the optical path and protects against moisture accumulation or oxidation during analysis
The Argon Snout Tube is a specialized glass consumable used in Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) spectrometers, specifically for the Thermo ARL 3500 Maxi instrument. It is a critical component of the torch assembly, facilitating the flow of argon gas required to maintain the plasma used for sample analysis
Function and Application
In ICP spectroscopy, the torch consists of concentric quartz tubes where argon gas flows to form plasma.
- Purpose: The argon snout tube helps deliver argon gas precisely within the torch assembly to ensure stable plasma formation and protect the outer torch layers from melting.
- Material: Typically made from high-purity quartz or borosilicate glass to withstand the extreme temperatures of the plasma
