FASTFluidic FilterProbe – 4th Generation ICP Valve Injection with Backflush

FASTFluidic FilterProbe

FASTFluidic FilterProbe

High-Throughput Valve Injection with Backflush Rinsing

FASTFluidic FilterProbe automates syringe-driven backflushing of the sample flowpath to clear particulates during analysis, preventing clogs and improving rinse-out while maintaining or exceeding existing ultra high-throughput performance for ICP and ICPMS workflows.

FilterProbe: Innovative Anti-Clogging Technology

FASTFluidic FilterProbe uses a small, inline, inert CTFE filter and automated syringe-driven backflushing to prevent particulates from entering the sample flowpath and disrupting analysis.

  • Prevents particulates, fibers, and debris from reaching nebulizers and valves

  • Automatically backflushes the filter during analysis to clear accumulated debris

  • Reduces maintenance and extends analytical run times

RidingRinse: Mobile Rinse Station

  • RidingRinse moves with the autosampler carriage, providing fast access to a rinse station

  • Access rinse position in <0.5 seconds

  • Prevents wasted autosampler movements required for a conventional fixed rinse location

FASTFluidic FilterProbe Applications

Agricultural Soil Analysis

Accurate determination of plant-available micronutrients in soil is necessary to assess whether levels are likely to limit crop growth. FASTFluidic FilterProbe Soil minimizes ICP carryover and improves rinse out, resulting in accurate agricultural soil micronutrient analysis without sacrificing high-throughput.

  • >500x rinse out factor
  • <10 seconds sample-to-sample
  • ≤3 second integration time

Agricultural Soil Analysis

Wear Metals in Oil

High-throughput ICP analysis of oils and lubricants can be prone to clogging and variability caused by sample settling and viscosity differences. FASTFluidic FilterProbe Oil solves these issues by preventing nebulizer and valve clogs, homogenizing samples immediately prior to analysis, and automatically adjusting sample loading and injection to accommodate viscosity and density variations.

  • Inline, free-flowing filter catches particulates – preventing clogs
  • Flow-controlled gas mixes samples immediately before analysis
  • 15 seconds sample-to-sample
  • SampleSense 3 accounts for varying sample densities and viscosities
