The experimental version of the AMD
Mini-QuAS³AR is a double focusing mass spectrometer based on a
Mattauch-Herzog ion optical design with a straight focal plane
suitable for the incorporation of an array detector for simultaneous
ion detection in a wide mass range.
Emphasis regarding the API interface and the analyzer design has been placed to the analysis of low mass ions.
The Evaluation Model of the new bench-top Mass Spectrometer AMD Mini-QuAS³AR is equipped with an Atmospheric Pressure Ionization (API) Interface
Implementation of alternative Ion sources like EI or CI for specific applications is possible
System Tests have been performed in different ionization modes with the API Interface:
ESI-MS Elemental Trace Analysis of Alkali metals in water
APCI-MS Trace Analysis of volatile organic compounds in ambient air
GD-MS Trace Analysis of volatile organic compounds in ambient air
