A nozzle for directing heated gas onto the distal end of a capillary arrangeable adjacent the nozzle, the nozzle comprising: a housing defining a plenum for heated gas; and at outlet comprising at least one aperture fluidly connected to the plenum, the outlet configured to direct a curtain of the heated gas onto the distal end of a capillary in use, such that the curtain of heated gas is substantially aligned with the longitudinal axis of the capillary.

Atmospheric solids analysis source assembly

A holder for a capillary, comprising: a housing having a passage to receive a capillary; and a clamping mechanism configurable between: an engaged state in which the clamping mechanism is configured to retain a capillary receivable in the passage in use; and a disengaged state in which the clamping mechanism is configured to allow insertion/removal of a capillary in the passage in use; and a release mechanism operatively associated with the clamping mechanism and movable between a first position, in which the clamping mechanism is configured in said engaged state; and a second position, in which the clamping mechanism is configured in aid disengaged state, wherein the release mechanism is configured to bias the clamping mechanism towards the engaged state, wherein the passage in the housing comprises an end stop, configured to abut the end of a capillary inserted in the passage in use.

Holder for a capillary triggered to hold when a capillary is inserted

A lens assembly for an outer source of a mass spectrometer, the assembly comprising: a housing; a plurality of lens elements, each lens element comprising a radially extending electrically conductive protrusion, the lens elements being linearly arranged in the housing such that the protrusions are aligned with one another, and an interface connector having a plurality of sockets to receive the protrusions therein and create an electrical connection between the protrusions and sockets. A housing for a resistance temperature detector is also disclosed.

Outer source assembly and associated components

A lens assembly for an outer source of a mass spectrometer, the assembly comprising: a housing; a plurality of lens elements, each lens element comprising a radially extending electrically conductive protrusion, the lens elements being linearly arranged in the housing such that the protrusions are aligned with one another; and an interface connector having a plurality of sockets to receive the protrusions therein and create an electrical connection between the protrusions and sockets. A housing for a resistance temperature detector is also disclosed.

A transfer line for a GCMS arrangement, the transfer line comprising: a transfer probe having a probe bore to receive a GC column; a sealing cap movably mounted at a first end of the transfer probe; and a resilient element arranged to bias the sealing cap away from the first end of the transfer probe.

Transfer line, GCMS arrangement and mounting assembly

An inner source assembly for a mass spectrometer, the assembly comprising: a base; and a volume housing removably connectable to the base for retaining a repeller assembly therebetween, wherein one of the base and volume housing comprises at least two protrusions and the other of the volume housing and base comprises at least two corresponding slots to receive and retain said protrusions, wherein the protrusions are dissimilar to one another and/or the slots are dissimilar to one another.
