Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (PlasmaQuant® MS)

The PlasmaQuant® MS Spectrometer, manufactured by Analytik Jena is extremely reliable – able to run any sample matrix from waste water to organic solvents. The integrated aerosol dilution allows direct analysis of high TDS samples. Simply dilute samples online. The highly efficient RF system of the PlasmaQuant® MS produces a virtually center-grounded, stable and robust plasma with a conventional torch using as little as 7 L/min plasma gas. Superior design means that no torch shield is required to eliminate problematic secondary discharge as the plasma is electrically balanced. The flexible system with ultimate sensitivity and targeted performance optimization using various accessories for advanced research: ■ Flexible connection of accessories using two entry ports to the plasma compartment ■ Ultimate freedom of optimization through full ion focus control ■ Shortest dwell time and best mass separation
