Used WATERS 2414 #293659979 for sale

WATERS 2414 is a single quadrupole UPLC (ultra-performance liquid chromatography) mass spectrometer that is designed to analyze samples and separates compounds with an electro-spray ionization (ESI) source. The instrument utilizes a 4-pole electro-kinetic (quadrupole) design, allowing for a faster scanning speed compared to single quadrupole instruments and due to its multiple stages of mass discrimination, allow for increased sensitivity and resolution. The ESI source is the heart of any MS instrument and 2414 is no exception. It utilizes a pneumatically actuated sprayer which generates solvent droplets at an adjustable flow rate. The narrower droplet size is preferred in more complex sample matrices or when measuring low levels of analytes. The ESI-source is strategically aligned to optimize the transmission of ions to the quadrupole mass filter. The quadrupole utilizes static rods that are arranged in a non-conducive material and assembled so that each pair share a common axis. A robust radio-frequency (RF) circuit is used to create an angular momentum field as ions pass through the 4-poles. By varying the RF and DC amplitudes and the pressure of helium gas, the mass filter can be adjusted to pass only those ions within the desired mass range. This allows for the separation of complex matrices into their individual components. WATERS 2414 is compatible with multiple chromatography methods, such as reverse-phase, hydrophilic interaction, ion-exchange and size-exclusion. Additionally, the instrument has a standard operating range of UP to 25,000 amu and has an expanding range up to 30,000 amu (atomic mass units) with selectable nominal resolution range from 0.3 to 1,000,000. 2414 features a range of both qualitative and quantitative software applications, allowing for identification and quantitation of compounds. These applications include Target Compound in Mixture Analysis (TCM), Accurate Mass and Retention Time (AMRT), and Universal Calibration Library (UCL). Other features include onboard data manipulation and export, automatic print-outs and customizable reporting options. WATERS 2414 is an efficient and easy to use MS instrument and is ideal for laboratories in need of reliable qualitative and quantitative analysis. With its range of applications and high mass accuracy of the instrument, 2414 is a excellent choice for a variety of analytical tasks.
