All Burgener Nebulizers use Teflon for the sample passage and for the gas orifice, except for the Mira Mist CE,Enya Mist and X-175 which have Teflon bodies and PEEK sample passage and gas orifice.
Most Burgener Nebulizers are 100% Teflon except for the removable gas fittings, but the PEEK Mira Mist and the Ari Mist use PEEK for the outside body, and Teflon for the inner capillaries.
All Burgener Nebulizers use the patented Enhanced Parallel Path Method of creating a mist. None of the Burgener nebulizers have suction, so liquids must be pumped to the nebulizers.

PEEK Mira Mist |
PEEK | 35-45 | 200 - 2500 | 500 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | possible not likely |
All | High Salts, Medium Particles, excellent %RSD (< .7%), very good sensitivities and excellent long term stability. Not appropriate for concentrated acids, some organics. |
Teflon Mira Mist |
PTFE | 35-45 | 200 - 2500 | 500 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | possible not likely |
All | High Salts, Medium Particles, excellent %RSD (< .7%), very good sensitivities and excellent stability. Excellent for all acids, all organics. |
T 2100 | PTFE | 30-40 | 500 - 2500 | 750 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | Nearly Impossible | All | High Salts, Particles, excellent %RSD (< 1%), very good sensitivities and excellent stability. Excellent for all acids, all organics. |
Ari Mist | PEEK | 35-45 | 50 - 1000 | 225 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | possible not likely |
All | Medium Salts, NO Particles, good %RSD (< 1%), Excellent sensitivities. Micro Flow for alcohol, organics: 50 ul/min + |
T2002 | PTFE | 35-45 | 800 - 2500 | 500-800 | 28 mm | 6 mm | 58.4 mm | 1/8", 1/4", 4 mm available. |
No | All | High Salts, Particles, good %RSD (< 1%), good sensitivities. Can not plug nebulizer - inner sample passage larger than capillary used to carry sample from pump to nebulizer. |

Mira Mist - CE | PEEK | 75-90 | 2 - 2500 | 500 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | possible not likely |
All or mini chamber |
Designed for CE / ICP / MS. Allows CE capillary to extend to tip. Also runs as excellent nebulizer without CE capillary. |
PFA 250 | PFA Teflon | 50 | 25 - 1000 | 250 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | possible not likely |
All | Medium Salts, small Particles, good %RSD (< 2%), Excellent sensitivities and low flow capable. Ultra Clean PFA construction. All wetted parts are PFA. |
X - 175 | Teflon & PEEK | 40 | 50 - 1000 | 175 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | easy | All standard | Medium Salts, NO Particles, good %RSD (< 1%), Excellent sensitivities. Designed for ICP/MS low flow applications. Greater stability than Ari Mist HP Can also do Micro Flow for alcohol, organics: 5 ul/min + |
NX - 175 | Teflon & PEEK | 30 | 50 - 1000 | 175 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | easy | All standard | Medium Salts, NO Particles, good %RSD (< 1%), Excellent sensitivities. Designed for NexION and Bruker/Varian ICP/MS low flow applications with 1.2 L/min gas flow at 50 psi. Greater stability than Ari Mist HP Can also do Micro Flow for alcohol, organics: 5 ul/min + |
Ari Mist HP | PEEK | 65 | 5 - 1000 | 150 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | easy | All or mini chamber |
Medium Salts, NO Particles, good %RSD (< 1%), Excellent sensitivities. Works with Burgener Mini Chamber - simpler than direct injection with same advantages. Micro Flow for alcohol, organics: 5 ul/min + |
ENYA Mist | Teflon | 50 | 0.2 - 50 | 60 | 34 mm | 6 mm | 65 mm | 2 mm | easy | All or mini chamber |
Medium Salts, NO Particles, good %RSD (< 2%), Excellent sensitivities but low flow lowers intensities. Tiny sample passage allows for split flow - pump 30 - 50X what actually arrives in the nebulizer. The rest goes to the drain. Minimizes oxides in ICP/MS. |
