HGX-200 Hydride Generation and Cold Vapor System

The HGX-200 is a specialized system for the generation of volatile hydride species or the reduction of mercury to Hg(0)(cold vapor). Elements of interest that form volatile hydrides include the difficult to measure elements As and Se. Important features of hydride generation/cold vapor and the HGX-200 are listed below:

  • 10 fold or more improvement in detection limits for As and Se by ICP-AES and ICP-MS
  • Separation of analytes from potential interference
  • Special U-shaped gas-liquid separator (GLS) with droplet separator for noise reduction
  • "Frosted tip" design of GLS for efficient generation of hydride species or Hg(0)
  • Additional gas inlet after PTFE membrane filter for optimization of washout time and noise reduction
  • Color-coded connections for easy setup and operation

Please see the links at the lower left for more HGX-200 information.
