The XSERIES 2 ICP-MS is an ergonomically designed quadrupole ICP-MS taking up little more bench space than many competitive AAS systems. The innovative Protective Ion Extraction and Infinity II ion optics, based upon a hexapole design with chicane ion deflector, provides the lowest background specification of any quadrupole ICP-MS. This ion lens design uniquely enables simple field upgrade to Collision Cell Technology performance without affecting the normal (non-CCT mode) sensitivity or background.
The XSERIES 2 ICP-MS is available in tailored configurations to suit all applications with user interchangeable Xt and Xs interface options. Peltier cooling and third generation Collision Cell Technology options provide enhanced performance leading to the highest signal / background of any quadrupole ICP-MS with collision cell capability.
The high performance quadrupole analyzer is pumped by a novel split flow turbo pump backed by a single rotary. The high capacity pumping system enables the use of diluted reactive gases such as 7% H2 in He or 1% NH3 in He to be used in CCT mode rather than undiluted H2 or NH3 thereby eliminating potential corrosion problems and enhancing instrument reliability and operator safety.
The simultaneous analog/PC detector with real time multi-channel analyzer electronics provides >8 orders of dynamic range ensuring the spectrometer is suitable for both steady state and transient signal analysis.
The instrument and accessories are fully computer controlled by the field proven PlasmaLab software.
