Product Description
HGA Pyrocoated Graphite Tubes with Integrated Platforms
Graphite tubes with integrated platforms are machined from one piece of graphite and are totally pyrocoated, providing exceptional tube-to-tube reproducibility. The spherically shaped platform accommodates up to 50mL of sample. Graphite tubes with integrated platforms: Provide STPF conditions for volatile as well as nonvolatile, refractory elements due to the significantly higher heating rates of tube and platform and can be used tor all elements, Offer an extra measure of convenience, and Provide longer life with many aggressive sample matrices, such as concentrated acids.
Superior Thermal Stability and PerformanceThese graphite tubes withstand high operating temperatures up to 3000C, making them ideal for rigorous atomic absorption applications. The pyrolytic graphite coating ensures outstanding thermal conductivity and resistance to wear, helping maintain instrument accuracy and performance over many analytical cycles.
Designed for HGA Series CompatibilityPerkin Elmer HGA Graphite Tubes are precisely tailored for seamless integration with HGA 900, 400, 500, and 600 series atomizers. This compatibility allows for easy replacement, minimal downtime, and optimum functioning within routine laboratory workflows.
FAQs of PERKIN ELMER HGA GRAPHITE TUBES:
Q: How do I choose the correct Perkin Elmer HGA Graphite Tube model for my atomizer?
A: Select the graphite tube model based on your specific Perkin Elmer HGA series atomizer (e.g., 900, 400, 500, or 600). The required part number can be referenced from the original equipment manufacturers (OEM) catalog to ensure compatibility.
Q: What is the recommended replacement interval for these graphite tubes?
A: Replacement should be carried out routinely, depending on performance monitoring. Typically, the tubes last for 200400 firings, although this can vary with application intensity and sample type.
Q: When is it necessary to replace the graphite tube in the HGA atomizer?
A: Replace the tube when you observe performance decline, such as unstable background absorption, reduced sensitivity, or physical degradation of the tube. Regular inspection and adherence to usage recommendations help optimize tube life.
Q: Where can I purchase Perkin Elmer HGA Graphite Tubes in India?
A: These components are available through authorized exporters, importers, manufacturers, suppliers, and traders across India. Check with local scientific equipment distributors for sourcing options.
Q: What process is involved in installing a new graphite tube?
A: The installation involves opening the atomizer, carefully removing the old tube, and fitting the new tube with its end caps into place. Ensure alignment and secure seating for optimal operation, following instrument-specific guidelines.
Q: How does the pyrolytic graphite coating benefit analytical performance?
A: The pyrolytic coating enhances heat distribution and boosts resistance to chemical attack and deformation, resulting in more consistent atomization and thus more reliable analytical outcomes.
Q: What advantages do these tubes offer in terms of durability and usage?
A: These graphite tubes feature high thermal conductivity and a long operational life, reducing the frequency of replacements. This minimizes instrument downtime and associated costs, ensuring efficient laboratory operation.
