For testing labs conducting trace-elemental analyses looking for a reliable yet easy-to operate system capable of high sample throughput, the NexION® 1100 ICP-MS builds on a strong tradition of reliable, easy-to-use, low-maintenance instrumentation, now reinventing the user experience for routine ICP-MS applications.
Its unique single-analyzer, three-quad design, combined with a single gas channel (with upgrade option to multiple channels) and a modernized workflow, come together to offer simple yet effective interference removal, low maintenance, excellent stability, as well as sustainability, all in a streamlined experience – the ideal ICP-MS for day-to-day trace-elemental analyses.
Overview
The NexION 1100 is a single-analyzer ICP-MS with three quad-design and a single gas channel, boasting a unique combination of proprietary technologies:
Proprietary three-quad design provides three stages of mass resolution:
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) comes standard with one cell gas channel with upgrade option to three channels with on-the-fly gas mixing capability for Collision and Reaction modes.
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.
Single gas channel provides universal solution for most applications, leveraging helium only for Collision mode or helium-hydrogen mix for Collision and Reaction modes, so you can easily switch between modes without changing gas.
