ICP-MS

ICP–MS is an advanced analytical instrument used to determine trace and ultra-trace elements in various samples. It uses a high-temperature argon plasma to ionize elements and a mass spectrometer to separate and quantify them based on their mass-to-charge ratio. The technique ensures precise, rapid, and highly sensitive elemental analysis.

Key Features:

• Ultra-trace detection limits (up to ppt levels)
• Simultaneous multi-element analysis
• Wide dynamic measurement range
• Capable of isotopic ratio determination
• Handles both liquid and solid samples (with laser ablation)
• Fast analysis with minimal sample preparation
• Collision/reaction cell for interference removal

Specifications:

• Mass Range: 5–260 amu
• RF Power: 1.2–1.5 kW
• Detection Limit: Up to parts per trillion (ppt) level
• Sample Types: Liquids, digested solids, or laser ablated samples
• Dynamic Range: Up to 10⁹
• Plasma Gas: Argon (~15 L/min)
• Interface: Multi-cone vacuum interface system
• Cooling System: Recirculating chiller-based cooling
• Data Output: Digital with advanced quantification software
