Detail:
The SeaSpray combines a unique self-washing tip with the revolutionary Glass Expansion VitriCone construction. The design of the SeaSpray nebulizer tip has smooth surfaces to minimize the adhesion of salt crystals. It also uses the washing action of the dispersing droplets to prevent crystal growth, allowing the SeaSpray to handle up to 20% salt solutions.
With some concentric glass nebulizer brands, the sample channel is from fine capillary tubing. Glass Expansion nebulizers, on the other hand, use a unique VitriCone construction. With the VitriCone design, the sample channel is a heavy glass capillary with very tight tolerances.
- The sample channel is uniform, so salt deposition is inhibited.
- The industry’s tightest tolerances ensure that each nebulizer will perform to the same high standards as the previous one.
The SeaSpray U-Series nebulizer is a glass concentric nebulizer designed for ICP-OES and ICP-MS analysis, known for its high nebulization efficiency and ability to handle samples with high dissolved solids (up to 20% salt solutions) without clogging, offering improved precision and sensitivity. It stands out from other nebulizers due to its VitriCone construction and UniFit connector, adding to its robustness and ease of use.
What Is the SeaSpray U-Series Nebulizer?
The SeaSpray nebulizer is a type of concentric nebulizer for use in Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) instruments.
What are Some Features of the SeaSpray U-Series Nebulizer?
- High Nebulization Efficiency: It’s designed to efficiently convert liquid samples into a fine aerosol, which is crucial for optimal signal detection in ICP instruments.
- Tolerance to High Dissolved Solids: It can handle samples with high concentrations of dissolved solids (up to 20% salt solutions) without clogging or compromising performance.
- Self-Washing Tip: The design includes a self-washing tip with smooth surfaces to minimize the build-up of salt crystals, further enhancing its robustness.
- VitriCone Construction: The sample channel uses the unique VitriCone design, which adds to its robustness and ease of use.
- UniFit Connector: The U-Series nebulizers feature the proprietary UniFit connector that slides over the sample arm creating an excellent seal and zero-dead volume connection.
How Is the SeaSpray U-Series Nebulizer Different from Other Nebulizers?
- Robustness: The VitriCone construction and self-washing tip make it more resistant to clogging and maintain performance when handling challenging samples.
- Sensitivity: Its high nebulization efficiency leads to improved sensitivity, allowing for the detection of trace elements at lower concentrations.
- Ease of Use: The UniFit connector simplifies the connection to the ICP instrument and reduces the risk of leaks.
- Applications:
- Trace Element Analysis: Ideal for trace element analysis in various matrices, including aqueous samples, organic solvents, and samples with high dissolved solids.
- Speciation Studies: The high-pressure interface facilitates the speciation of elemental compounds, providing more information about the sample.
Nexus™ Universal Connection Kit
The Nexus™ Universal Connection Kit is a one-size-fits-all nebulizer connection kit that enables you to use any of Glass Expansion’s industry-leading concentric nebulizers with the sample introduction configuration of your choice, including switching valves, chromatographs (LC, HPLC, IC, etc.), and other high-performance accessories:
- Switching Valves: Simple and reliable custom-length connections to all high-throughput valve or syringe-drive systems.
- Speciation Analysis: Zero-dead-volume and secure, high-pressure connection for hyphenated techniques, such as LC-ICP-MS, HPLC-ICP-MS, IC-ICP-MS, and FFF-ICP-MS.
- High-Efficiency Sample Introduction System (HE-SIS): Connect to Glass Expansion’s HE-SIS, which provides up to 95% transport efficiency for various applications.
- High-Precision Analysis: Create a high-pressure seal when performing self-aspiration for the most stable sample uptake and delivery.
These easy-to-install kits are inert and configured for 1.6 mm (1/16″) OD tubing. They have PTFE ferrules that reliably seal with all commonly used capillary tubing materials (PFA, PTFE, FEP, and PEEK). Plus, they provide a secure, zero-dead-volume direct connection to the liquid interface of a Glass Expansion nebulizer.
