PC3 Peltier Chiller

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)
  • 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

The PC3-SSI incorporates a dual spray chamber which further homogenizes the sample aerosol stream giving improved stability. Ideal for high precision Isotope Ratio analysis.
