ICP-MS cones, consisting of a Sampler cone and Skimmer cone, form the interface region between the atmospheric ICP and the high vacuum MS detector. Agilent offers interface cones that have either a Nickel or Platinum tip. Pt cones are used for their resistance to aggressive acidic sample matrix and organic solvents. They can enable the lowest background and longest cone lifetime. Ni cones provide good performance and lifetime with an economical cost for routine ICP-MS applications.

Agilent ICP-MS cones are precisely engineered and accurately manufactured to our tight tolerances. Our range of interface cones are also coupled with stainless steel or brass skimmer bases. Using genuine Agilent cones can ensure the highest performance of your 7700, 7800, 7850, 7900, 8800, 8900 ICP-MS.
