For over four decades, Glass Expansion has been manufacturing sample introduction components for ICP emission and mass spectrometers, earning a world-wide reputation for quality and reliability. Our unique and proprietary manufacturing methods ensure components possess high mechanical strength and micron-level dimensional accuracy, meeting the narrowest of analytical specifications consistently. Distinguishing itself through innovative products and dedicated customer support, the company invests annually in R&D. Additionally, we provide comprehensive technical support through industry partnerships and operate a fully equipped laboratory with 6 in-house ICP-OES and ICP-MS spectrometers.
Glass Expansion offers a meticulously designed range of products tailored for environmental analysis, specifically addressing challenges associated with sample types like soils, sludges, wastewater, and brines, which often have high total dissolved solids. Our comprehensive selection of sample introduction components, from sample probes to cones for ICP-OES and ICP-MS analysis, effectively tackles common issues such as interrupted runs, signal drift, clogging, instrument downtime, and regulatory compliance. Solutions like the HydraMist spray chamber, Guardian Autosampler probe, SeaSpray DC Nebulizer, DuraMist DC Nebulizer, Elegra argon humidifier, and D-Torch enhance stability, reduce maintenance, and improve TDS analysis, collectively enhancing laboratory efficiency, reliability, and compliance.
1. HydraMist™ spray chamber enables simultaneous analysis of hydride and non-hydride forming elements, surpassing traditional ICP methods. Its unique design streamlines Cold Vapor analysis without mode switching, achieving superior sensitivity and precision.
2. Guardian Autosampler probe™ prevents cross-contamination and nebulizer blockages with built-in particle filtering and drip-resistance. Its purpose-built Guardian In-Line Particle Filter seamlessly integrates into sample tubing.
3. Elegra™ Argon Humidifie offers superior humidification efficiency, stability enhancement, and reduced maintenance. Its innovative membrane-based design eliminates the need for a power supply and heating element, benefiting environmental labs with extended run times and improved TDS analysis.
4. The SeaSpray™ DC Nebulizer ensures precise reproducibility and tolerance up to 20% TDS. Its VitriCone design with the self-washing tip enables efficient and reliable nebulization, prevents clogs, and ensuring enhanced short-term precision.
5. D-Torch™ a patented* demountable torch, is engineered for robust, high-performance analysis, providing laboratories with a reliable and cost-effective solution for challenging sample matrices, enhancing torch longevity and minimizing downtime.
