Your complete reference for our range of Guardian Autosampler Probes. Inside: key features, performance data, nebulizer compatibility, part numbers for your exact autosampler, maintenance tips, and troubleshooting help, all in one place.

For over 30 years, Glass Expansion has led the ICP industry in demountable torch design and pioneered ceramic torches to deliver robust plasma performance and simplified maintenance. The E-Torch™ extends that legacy to Thermo® PRO and Agilent® 5000 instruments, engineered with precision annular spacing and advanced materials to deliver stability and versatility across the widest range of sample types.

Access our SeaSpray™ Technical Brief for optimization and maintenance best practices, and discover why its superior analytical performance is backed by nearly 1,000 citations in peer-reviewed publications and manufacturer-supported application notes.

Precision starts at the source—this guide helps you choose the right nebulizer for optimal performance, reliability, and results across every ICP application.

The Guardian Autosampler Probe combines drip-resistance and built-in particle filtering, preventing cross-contamination during probe movement and blockages in your nebulizer and capillary tubing. Constructed entirely from Ceramic, PEEK and PTFE, the Guardian autosampler probe provides exceptional resistance to strong acids and solvents. The robust tip design prevents crushed and damaged tips due to misalignment. The Guardian probe is available in models to suit Teledyne Cetac, AimLab & Agilent SPS3 /SPS4 Autosamplers.

The RotaValve™ is a high-precision, durable switching valve that integrates seamlessly with Agilent 5000 Series ICP-OES systems, maintaining full compatibility with the mechanical, electrical, and fluidic interfaces of the AVS system—while offering enhanced durability and reliability.

Glass Expansion is pleased to release a new high-performance Peltier Cooled Cyclonic (PCC) Spray Chamber Kit fully compatible with Agilent® ICP-MS. The PCC offers improved washout and increased sample throughput compared to the standard Scott-style spray chamber.

The Glass Expansion Semi-Demountable torch (P/N 30-808-4221) is a direct replacement for the standard quartz torch used on the Analytik Jena aurora M90, 800-MS Series ICP-MS range of instruments. It is precision-engineered to provide chemical inertness and choice of injectors for all sample types without compromising analytical performance, usability, or durability.

The D-Torch to suit the Agilent® 5000 series ICP-OES provides a robust and high-performing alternative to both the single-piece and semi-demountable quartz torches, ensuring greater robustness and a lower cost of ownership.

Glass Expansion offers a complete range of nebulizers, spray chambers, torches, and other accessories for the Analytik Jena® PlasmaQuant 9000 Series. Our high performance sample introduction components will reduce your instrument running costs, enhance its performance and improve usability.

Our ICP-MS Cone Resource Guide answers all the questions you've ever had about cones. It includes the “why” and “how” of selecting the right cones, details on the advantages of different cone materials, and tips on care and maintenance.

Glass Expansion offers a complete range of nebulizers, spray chambers, torches, and other accessories for the PerkinElmer® NexION 5000 ICP-MS. Our high-performance sample introduction components will reduce your instrument running costs, enhance its performance and improve usability.

The Trident CT™ is a simple, easy, and error-free way to continuously add internal standards or ionization buffers in ICP spectrometry. The Trident CT mixing chamber is based on the industry-proven design of the Trident, but with the addition of Glass Expansion’s ConstantTorque™ (CT) technology to provide a simple-to-use, leak-free connection for both the internal standard and sample, every time.

Glass Expansion offers a complete range of nebulizers, spray chambers, torches, and other accessories for the Thermo Scientific™ PRO ICP-OES. Our high-performance sample introduction components will reduce your instrument running costs, enhance its performance and improve usability.

Originally designed as a highly efficient single-cell sample introduction system, Glass Expansion’s HE-SIS has been redesigned to provide superior performance across a wide variety of applications, including single-cell, single particle, nanoparticle, and low-volume sample studies, with up to 95% transport efficiency.

The HydraMist is a sensitive, simple-to-use spray chamber for Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) that supports simultaneous operation of conventional pneumatic nebulization and cold-vapor/hydride generation. Cold vapor generation can provide more than 10-fold improvement in sensitivity on ICP for elements such As, Sb, Se, Tl and Hg.
