Platinum Skimmer Cone for NexION.This Platinum Skimmer Cone is for use with NexION 300, 350, 1000, and 2000 ICP-MS series instruments. It is included in the NexION 2000 Semiconductor Configuration Consumable Kit (N8150057). Precision-designed and manufactured, large-orifice sampler and skimmer cones provide superior long-term stability and resist clogging, allowing analysis under both high and low sample-uptake conditions. Nickel is a very rugged, long-lasting material for the majority of sample types, while platinum is the material of choice for more corrosive samples. They have been designed to maximize signal stability and to minimize clogging during extended runs of samples containing high dissolved solids.
