Used PERKIN ELMER / SCIEX Elan DRC II #293668328 for sale

PERKIN ELMER / SCIEX Elan DRC II is a double-focusing inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometer (ICP-MS) with a sensitive and fast response time. This spectrometer can measure trace elements in a wide range of samples with high accuracy, detection limits and a rapid sample through put. SCIEX Elan DRC II consists of a double-focusing sector field magnet, a sampling stream introduction equipment, an ion source and detector, and a peripheral system. The double-focusing magnet uses a dipole-quadrupole configuration to deflect unwanted ions away from the analyzer, allowing only target ions to enter the detector. This helps to maintain a high signal-to- background ratio and excellent sensitivity for all analyses. PERKIN ELMER Elan DRC II's sampling stream introduction unit includes a nitrogen generator, a desolvator, and a nebulizer. The nitrogen generator is designed to efficiently mix and match gas concentrations throughout the entire machine. The desolvator is used to evaporate sample matrix material, which reduces concentration of organic compounds that otherwise can cause spectral interference. The nebulizer facilitates ionization of the sample as it is mixed and heated with the inflow of a helium carrier gas and an argon collision gas. A heated quartz virtual impactor is optional for use with the nebulizer tool. The ion source utilizes a QuadTech interface to couple ions from the source into the mass analyzer, providing improved signal stability, increased throughput in multi-element analysis, and improved detection limits. The Linear ion trap detector is highly responsive due to its optimized geometrical shape and is capable of performing multiple element scans in less than a second.Elan DRC II uses a peripheral asset consisting of a personal computer, touchscreen user interface, and automated sample handling, which provides a seamless access to powerful data acquisition and analysis software. PERKIN ELMER / SCIEX Elan DRC II is one of the most reliable and efficient ICP-MS systems available, operating in both qualitative and quantitative analyses. It is suitable for a wide range of applications such as environmental, research, food & agriculture and industrial analysis, as well as for the study of trace elements in geological samples.
