In the inlet piece there is arranged an inlet tube, which has an outlet into the sample chamber and an inlet opening at its other end. The outlet as well as the inlet opening of the inlet tube has a reduced cross section relative to the central part of the inlet tube. The inlet tube is formed of quartz glass, and the wall of the inlet tube is crimped toward the axis of the inlet tube at its two ends.
