I use ICP-OES VDV 5100,after 3 years, my torch looked eroded at the top of torch. How long torch can be used if I use Nitric Acid as dilution for sample? is there any record about life time for ICP Torch?Thank you.

There is no prediction of a life time as the sample compositions can be totally different and with that the corrosion of a torch. 3 years is not only decent, but a great life time in general.
