4000ml PFA vial cleaning system with vial rack

Product Overview

The PFA Vial Cleaning System is a critical component for laboratories performing sub-ppb and ppt-level trace analysis. Designed to replace traditional, inefficient soaking methods, this system utilizes high-purity PFA vessels to facilitate deep acid cleaning of labware. The 4L and 6L configurations provide ample headspace for the effective circulation of acid vapors or liquids, ensuring that even complex geometries and micro-vials are fully decontaminated and ready for ICP-MS workflows.

Product Synergy & Workflow 

Integrated into the high-purity laboratory maintenance chain:

• PFA Vials & Jars: The primary items to be cleaned; the system is sized to hold multiple vials for batch processing.

• PFA Pipette Tips: Can be loaded into the system using specialized PFA racks for bulk decontamination.

• Acid Purification Systems: Provides the high-purity "blank" acids used as the cleaning medium within the system.

• PFA/FEP Reagent Bottles: Used to collect and store the purified acids after they have been used in the cleaning cycle.

Application Fields & Industries

• Trace Element Analysis: Essential for pre-cleaning all plasticware used in ICP-MS/OES sample preparation.

• Semiconductor Industry: Batch cleaning of small PFA components and carriers used in wafer processing.

• Environmental Monitoring: Decontaminating sampling vessels used for heavy metal detection in water and soil.

• Geochemistry: Ensuring ultra-low blank levels for the dissolution of geological standards and rare earth elements.
