Abstract
Systems and methods for a gas chromatography mass spectrometry fitting are described herein. An assembly can include a first fitting having a first flat surface, a first conduit, and a protrusion. The assembly can include a ferrule having a frustoconical surface, a second flat surface, and a second conduit. The second flat surface can be sealed against the protrusion. The assembly can include a tube disposed in the first conduit and the second conduit. The second conduit can define an interior surface of the ferrule. The interior surface of the ferrule can seal against an outer surface of the tube.
Claims20
An assembly for a gas chromatography mass spectrometry system, comprising:
- a first fitting comprising:
- a first flat surface;
- a first conduit intersecting with the first flat surface at a first conduit inlet;
- and
- a protrusion disposed on the first flat surface of the first fitting and around the first conduit inlet;
- and
- a ferrule comprising:
- a frustoconical surface;
- a second flat surface sealed against the protrusion;
- a second conduit intersecting with the second flat surface at a second conduit inlet, the second conduit aligned with the first conduit;
- and
- a tube disposed in the first conduit and the second conduit, the tube configured to extend through the first conduit inlet and the second conduit inlet,
- wherein the second conduit defines an interior surface of the ferrule, the interior surface of the ferrule sealed against an outer surface of the tube.
