Ion trap mass spectrometers

Varian’s 200-MS series of ion trap mass spectrometers for GC/MS comprises three instruments (210-MS, 220-MS and 240-MS) for use in applications from routine analysis to advanced research.

Both the 240-MS and the 220-MS are delivered with the 450-GC gas chromatograph to ensure a high level of analytical performance. The 240-MS is claimed to deliver the highest full scan sensitivity available. A choice of ionisation modes and MS/MS scanning options allows accurate identification and quantification of trace analytes, even in the presence of complex matrices. This robust instrument is easy to maintain, making it equally suitable for use in both research and high-throughput environments.

The 220-MS is a flexible instrument that offers high analytical capabilities with CI (chemical ionisation) and MS/MS options for increased sensitivity and selectivity in a range of configurations. The 210-MS, available with the 431-GC, is an entry-level GC/MS designed for routine, high-throughput laboratories that require sensitive detection for gas chromatography.
