Mass Spectrometer
The mass spectrometer provides sample ionization and mass analysis of injected samples or
samples eluted from a liquid chromatograph. The TSQ mass spectrometer uses a
triple-quadrupole mass analyzer with an ion source external to the mass analyzer. Several
important features of the TSQ mass spectrometer are as follows:
• High sensitivity and resolution
• m/z 10 to 3000 mass range for TSQ Quantum Access, TSQ Quantum Access MAX, and
TSQ Vantage and TSQ Quantum Ultra mass spectrometers with extended mass range
(EMR) electronic assemblies installed; and m/z 10 to 1500 mass range for TSQ Vantage,
TSQ Vantage AM, TSQ Quantum Ultra, and TSQ Quantum Ultra AM mass
spectrometers without extended mass range electronic assemblies
• ESI, H-ESI, NSI, APPI, and APCI ionization modes
• Positive and negative ion polarity modes
• MS and MS/MS scan modes
• Full-scan, SIM, SRM, AutoSIM, and data-dependent scan types
The mass spectrometer includes the following components:
• Controls and Indicators
• API Source
• Ion Source Interface
• Ion Optics
• Mass Analyzer
• Ion Detection System
• Vacuum System and Inlet Gases Hardware
• Electronic Assemblies
