VHG Labs has assembled an ICP-MS Maintenance Kit designed to provide the ICPMS analyst with the right tools for the job of cleaning and restoring cones to their ‘as new’ performance. The kit includes: abrasive paste compound, diamond abrasive lapping paper: coarse and fine, abrasive powder: coarse and fine, Lintfree ‘clean room’ quality polyester cloths, polishing felt (3/8”), wood-stick cotton swabs, pointed-tip plastic foam swabs, magnifier lens, instruction guide.

ICP-MS cones bear the brunt of all sample by-products and also experience high temperature which leads to the build-up of residue. Ion lenses experience similar issues with build-up of residue; the components in the kit are useful in cleaning those too! If you have never used proper polishing felt or cloth, the right swab, or diamond paste, then you will be in for a pleasant experience. The maintenance kit is designed for any brand or type of ICPMS cone. Reduce the time you spend cleaning cones and ion lenses, improve analytical performance, and extend the life of your cones and ion lenses with this unique all-in-one kit.
