Why Replace Heaters on the SCIEX TurboIonSpray (TIS) Source?

Why Replace Heaters on the SCIEX TurboIonSpray (TIS) Source?

Heaters in the TIS source play a critical role in helping with:

  • Efficient desolvation of solvent droplets
  • Stable ionization for good sensitivity
  • Consistent spray performance

Over time, heaters degrade due to:

  • Constant high-temperature cycles
  • Exposure to solvents, vapours, and contaminants
  • Electrical wear and tear

When heaters start failing, you’ll see:

  • Lower sensitivity
  • Signal instability or noise
  • Poor reproducibility
  • Possible error messages (source temp errors)

Why Buy from Lab Tech Support?

Buying directly from Lab Tech Support ensures:

  • Correct part compatibility for your exact instrument model
  • Quality assurance — OEM heaters meet SCIEX's specifications
  • Warranty coverage on the part
  • Technical support if issues arise after the replacement

In Short:

“Heaters on the SCIEX TIS source need replacing to maintain stable, sensitive, and reproducible data. Buying them from Lab Tech Support ensures you're getting high-quality, compatible OEM parts with full technical support and warranty.”
