Tracey Cyclonic Spray Chamber
An industry standard
The Tracey cyclonic spray chamber is Glass Expansion's standard glass cyclonic spray chamber. It gives the best sensitivity, reproducibility, and lowest memory effects for standard ICP analyses.
- Material: Borosilicate glass
- Volume: 50mL
- High sensitivity and reduced matrix effects
- Physical reproducibility ~1%
- Faster washout than older coaxial chamber designs
- Low RSD's due to highly accurate construction
- Positive stop for reproducible nebulizer insertion
- Application uptake range 0.2 to 3.0mL/min

Tracey PFA44 Spray Chamber
Ultra-pure spray chamber for ICP-MS
The extreme sensitivity of the ICP-MS technique demands exceptional purity in all sample introduction components. This is why we have developed a new range of PFA spray chambers for ICP-MS. The PFA44 spray chamber can be teamed with the OpalMist PFA nebulizer to form the highest purity, most inert sample introduction system available. There is a system to suit most ICP-MS models.
- Made from ultra-pure PFA - ideal for ultra-trace ICP-MS analyses
- Totally inert - impervious to organic solvents and strong acids, even HF
- Established Tracey cyclonic design ensures excellent sensitivity and precision
- Fast washout enables the highest possible sample throughput
- Incorporates Helix nebulizer interface - no dead volume, smooth lock and release mechanism, no o'rings to replace
- Volume 44mL
The interior of the Tracey PFA44 has the proprietary Stediflow surface treatment which improves the wettability of the surface and ensures efficient drainage. Without the Stediflow treatment, droplets tend to form on the surface and degrade both sensitivity and precision.

Tracey TFE Spray Chamber
HF-resistant spray chamber for ICP-OES
The Tracey TFE spray chamber replaces the old polypropylene HF-resistant spray chamber. It is made from PTFE (Teflon) which is more chemically resistant than polypropylene. The Tracey TFE spray chambers are specially treated to ensure efficient drainage and they offer better sensitivity and precision than the old polypropylene spray chambers. They can be teamed with HF-resistant nebulizers to form the ideal chemically inert sample introduction system for ICP-OES. There is a system available to suit most ICP-OES models.
- Made from totally inert PTFE - impervious to organic solvents and strong acids, even HF
- Established Tracey cyclonic design ensures excellent sensitivity and precision
- Fast washout enables the highest possible sample throughput
- Incorporates Helix nebulizer interface - no dead volume, smooth lock and release mechanism, no o'rings to replace
- Volume 50mL
The interior of the Tracey TFE has the proprietary Stediflow surface treatment which improves the wettability of the surface and ensures efficient drainage. Without the Stediflow treatment, droplets tend to form on the surface and degrade both sensitivity and precision.

Twister Cyclonic Spray Chamber
Reduces solvent load
The Twister cyclonic spray chamber features a central transfer tube that acts as a secondary particle separator helping separate larger aerosol particles from the sample. This reduces solvent load in the plasma without compromising detection limits.
- Material: Borosilicate glass
- Volume: 50mL
- Physical reproducibility ~1%
- Low RSD's - highly accurate construction similar to Tracey cyclonic, except with central transfer tube
- Application uptake range 0.2 to 3.0mL/min
- Produces smaller mean droplet size

Cinnabar Cyclonic Spray Chamber
The low volume spray chamber for all ICPs
The Cinnabar spray chamber is a mini-cyclonic spray chamber that gives good sensitivity at very low uptakes. The Cinnabar's design and low volume are ideal for the reduction of memory and matrix effects and very fast washout.
- Material: Borosilicate glass
- Volume: 20mL
- Physical reproducibility ~1%
- Matrix effects 5 times lower than with coaxial chambers
- Low RSD's due to highly accurate construction
- Positive stop for reproducible nebulizer insertion
- Application uptake range ~20 to 400 µL/min
- Ideal for use with MicroMist nebulizers

Twinnabar Cyclonic Spray Chamber
Low volume, low solvent load
The Twinnabar cyclonic spray chamber is a low volume spray chamber with a central transfer tube (or baffle), combining the benefits of the Twister and the Cinnabar. It combines excellent precision with a very fast washout.
- Material: Borosilicate glass
- Volume: 20mL
- Physical reproducibility ~1%
- Low RSD's due to highly accurate construction
- Application uptake range ~20 to 400 µL/min
