is VERY SOFT. This tip is very easily damaged and should NEVER be
touched with fingers, tissues, or anything else. If the tip is accidentally
touched and the nebulizer continues to operate, then it is still functional,
and its use can be safely continued.

Sample Capillary Tubing

The PEEK Mira Mist body has 10/32 threads for the gas and capillary

fittings. Gently tighten until snug for the sample line. For the gas line, if
there seems to be any leakage, then tighten HARD. PEEK is very strong.
The capillary tubing is attached with UpChurch® 10/32 chromatographic fittings.
We supply 0.043 OD X 0.017 ID Poly Capillary tubing (Part No. N0777111), but
you may use any other tubing that fits an UpChurch 10/32 fitting. We recommend
that you use a 0.017" ID or smaller ID capillary tube for the sample feed. This
should catch any particles before they get into the nebulizer. It is much safer &
easier to replace the capillary tubing than to clean the nebulizer.
The Mira Mist Nebulizer body is PEEK, and the inner capillaries are Teflon.
Generally it will not break. If it is dropped such that the tip is deformed, then it will
be irreparably damaged. If it continues to operate after being dropped, then it has
not been affected, and its use can be safely continued.

Gas Line

The gas line is attached with UpChurch® 10/32 chromatographic fittings (Part No.
N0777113). We supply 2 mm OD X 0.039 ID Teflon tubing. A gas line filter is
NOT included in the nebulizer. Any particles from the gas line will destroy the
