Elemental Microanalysis News

Liners, inserts, ash fingers, or crucibles typically all perform the same function; enabling the simple removal of residual ash, they can prolong the useful life of your combustion tube, and help ensure your sample is positioned at the correct height in the furnace. Given the comparative cost of combustion tubes and reagents, using an ash finger (which can be replaced whenever necessary) will ensure your laboratory gets as many analyses as possible from every tube.

We offer liners, inserts and ash crucibles for micro CHN/S/O and CF–IRMS analysis for all major EA analyser brands, including LECO®, Elementar®, Thermo Fisher Scientific®, PerkinElmer®, EuroVector, and NC Technologies, to name but a few.

Many of these products are designed specifically for a particular OEM analyser, but others can be used in various analysers, and sometimes across different OEMs, – hence knowing the dimensions of a liner or crucible will enable the analyst to choose from a wider range of products.

We have produced a helpful guide, organized by size/shape of insert, which allows you find the right ash fingers, liners, inserts and crucibles from our extensive product range. Click below to read the guide. To confirm OEM compatibility for any of these products, simply check our website for a list of compatible instruments.
