ICP-MS Skimmer Cones

ICP-MS skimmer cones form part of the interface region between the atmospheric Argon plasma and the high vacuum quadrupole MS. Skimmer cones have an orifice or aperture at their tip to transmit the analyte ions to the high vacuum MS. Agilent skimmer cones with nickel or platinum tip have a customized tip geometry for your Agilent ICP-MS model and configuration.;The best analytical performance and signal stability is achieved with tight control of Agilent skimmer cone tip operating temperature to control matrix deposition. Only genuine Agilent skimmer cones with 100% quality control inspection ensure the analytical performance you expect from your Agilent ICP-MS.
