LCMS-2050 Single Quad Liquid Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer from Shimadzu Scientific Instruments

Description

The LCMS-2050 single quadrupole mass spectrometer combines the user-friendliness of an LC detector with the excellent performance of MS to provide a complete package of easy-to-use high-level performance and compactness. To make it accessible to all users, the system is enhanced with technology and functions to ensure that even technicians unfamiliar with mass spectrometers can easily and efficiently perform analysis. While delivering operational convenience on par with an LC detector, the LCMS-2050 can rapidly analyze compounds over a wide mass range with high sensitivity.

Key features/benefits:
  • Combined Dual Ion Source (heated electrospray and atmospheric pressure ionization) can analyze a wide range of compounds from multiple chemical classes
  • Ultrafast technology, including a 15,000 u/sec scan speed and polarity switching time of 10 msec, maintains high data quality while improving overall throughout
  • Can be incorporated as one component in an LC system
  • Can be used like an LC that operators simply turn on and use, enabling everything from MS data acquisition to data analysis
  • Vacuum system starts up in only six minutes for MS data acquisition
  • System Check function – injects a standard sample automatically, checks the mass accuracy, resolution, and spectral intensity, as well as instrument status
  • Easy system maintenance maximizes instrument uptime

The LabSolutions LCMS workstation for the LCMS-2050 can control the LC and MS instruments simultaneously. MS data and data obtained from other LC detectors can be analyzed on the same date review platform. It is also equipped with Analytical Intelligence functions for data analysis to make laboratory operations more efficient. The LC/MS chromatograms and UV/MS spectra can be displayed in a single window, which makes it easy to review data. Mass information can also be annotated on the UV chromatogram.
