ICP-MS spectrometer NexION 2200

quadrupolefor elemental analysis

For analytical testing labs performing trace-elemental analyses, the NexION® 2200 ICP-MS builds on a 40-year history of innovation in ICP-MS and a strong tradition of reliable, easy-to-use, low-maintenance instrumentation, delivering uncompromised performance, accuracy, and repeatability. Its unique three-quad design, combined with novel and proven technologies, including the second-generation Triple Cone Interface with OmniRing™, come together to offer outstanding sensitivity, superior interference removal, excellent stability, unmatched matrix tolerance, high throughput/greater uptime, as well as sustainability and low cost of operation. The NexION 2200 ICP-MS boasts a unique combination of proprietary technologies: Three quadrupoles: Quadrupole Ion Deflector (Q0) directs ions to the Universal Cell (Q1) with varied voltages, so target ion sensitivity is maximized while unwanted masses are reduced. Quadrupole Universal Cell (Q1) uses up to three gases with on-the-fly gas mixing capability for Collision or Reaction modes. The unique quadruple cell is empowered by dynamic bandpass tuning, preventing reaction by-products from causing interferences with target analytes. Transmission Analyzer Quadrupole (Q2, full-sized for < 0.7 amu mass resolution) acts as a mass filter or as an ion guide to direct ions to the detector. Second-generation Triple Cone Interface with patent-pending OmniRing™ technology delivers unprecedented flexibility to handle a variety of applications without needing different inserts or lenses, as on other commercial ICP-MS systems, allowing three modes of operation, as needed.
