Vestec Thermospray Probe and Enlargement of Probe Tip

Scientific Instrument Services has redesigned the Vestec thermospray probes so that the capillary inserts can be quickly and easily replaced by the user when necessary. Clogging problems with the original vestec thermospray probes is well documented. The original probes when they became clogged were virtually impossible to unclog and therefore the probe had to be sent back for repair or be replaced completely. The new design allows the user to replace the clogged capillary by simply using a Swagelok type fitting. (See the schematic of the probe tip). The standard 1/4" diameter tubing is used. However, the end of the probe is fitted with a tube adaptor, ferrule and nut which when tightened provides the vacuum seal around the capillary tubing. To replace a clogged capillary loosen the nut, slide out the 1/16" clogged capillary, and insert a new capillary. The thermocouples are spotwelded to the guide tube which the capillary slides into so that a spotwelder is not required, and replacement is easy. The standard 1/4" probe length is 13.5" and the capillary is 14.75". The capillaries have an inner diameter of 125 microns. Other sizes and lengths are available on request. These redesigned probes exhibit very similar temperature and pressure parameters to the Vestec originals.
