Nebulizers

Precision Glassblowing of Colorado manufactures the widest range of nebulizers available anywhere, including a complete line of borosilicate and quartz concentric nebulizers, and exclusive rights to the world renowned Noordermeer V-groove and the patented Modified Lichte nebulizers. All PG nebulizers are manufactured to strict specifications, and are guaranteed to be compatible with your ICP or ICP-MS instrument.

  

All Precision Glassblowing nebulizers are available in quartz or borosilicate glass, in conventional (pictured above right), with QD sample uptake fitting (pictured above middle), or with QDAC sample uptake and gas line fittings (pictured above left). Precision's QD fitting is the only fitting truly providing zero dead-volume between the sample uptake tubing and the internal capillary of the nebulizer, minimizing carryover and washout time.

 

Precision Glassblowing Concentric Nebulizers

PG has spent the last several years developing a revolutionary design for optimal sample transport in their concentric nebulizers, resulting in nebulizer designs which yield unparalleled performance, consistency and stability. Manufactured by their master glassblowers, PG can offer virtually any combination of common Argon flow, PSI and sample flow rate. So, the next time you are looking for a concentric nebulizer, discover what the top instrument manufacturers have known for years.

Aerosalt High-Solids Concentric Nebulizers

The Aerosalt nebulizer represents the latest in concentric nebulizer design, and features a proprietary tip design to maximize both aerosol consistency and dissolved solids tolerance. The result is a nebulizer capable of aspirating samples with high levels of dissolved solids while retaining the high sensitivity inherent in the concentric design. The Aerosalt operates on the same uptake ratings as the K-type nebulizer (30psi, 0.7 liter/minute).
