External Inlet Duct Adapter
The External Inlet Duct Adapter provides an attachment for ducting
air into the air intake port, for use in labs with harsher
environments.
Air inlet dust filter
The air inlet dust filter provides fine dust filtration of the air drawn
into the air intake port.
Vapor Generation Accessory (VGA)
The VGA 77P is a continuous flow vapor generation accessory for
Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectroscopy
(ICP-OES) instruments that determines Hg and the hydride-forming
elements at parts per billion (ppb) levels. The entire plumbing
assembly is integrated into a separate module and can be simply
exchanged when switching elements.
Multimode Sample Introduction System (MSIS)
For safety information and to prepare the MSIS for installation,
please see the instructions that came with this accessory and the ICP
Expert Help.
The MSIS is used with the ICP-OES instrument to provide
simultaneous vapor generation of several hydride forming elements,
enabling determination with low ppb detection limits.
The MSIS consists of a nebulizer and modified glass cyclonic spray
chamber that has two vertical conical tubes in the center of the
chamber. This allows for reductant and sample to mix quickly and
thoroughly in the chamber using thin film hydride technology to form
the hydrides.
The MSIS can be operated in three modes: hydride only,
simultaneous hydride and conventional nebulization or conventional
nebulization only.
