Unique Design
Unique Performance
- No Argon Dependency
- Runs on Nitrogen
- Nitrogen costs less and can be generated locally. Also eliminates need for combustible gases in remote locations.
Consumes Less Power
MICAP operates on 208V to 240V electrical power from regular outlets or remote generators.
Air Cooled No Chiller Required
With no water chiller required, maintenance and overheated rooms are a thing of the past.

Product Specification
MICAP-OES 1000 Plasma Source

Standard torch dimensions (20 mm) with 1.5 mm injector (2.5 mm injector option) designed around the fixed position torch holder assembly.
Variable speed four-channel peristaltic pump and concentric 1 mL/min nebulizer are standard sample introduction assembly (SIA) components.
Vertical torch position with axial viewing and automated, uniform plasma tail removal.
Echelle Spectrometer simultaneously measures the entire wavelength range with every solution injection.
