MS Instrument Supplies

Your mass spectrometer is a sensitive, specialized device that delivers a higher level of functionality compared to other GC detectors. To continue to achieve optimal results, diligent system maintenance is required. The Agilent range of GC/MS instrument supplies include: MS filaments, electron multiplier, and MS ion source supplies. Ion source filaments will eventually burn out and require replacement. The lifetime of an electron multiplier is directly related to the current that flows through it and the extent of contamination or condensation that it experiences. Increase in voltage above 2500 V indicates the need to replace the electron multiplier or horn. To preserve performance of electron ionization (EI) or chemical ionization (CI) sources, Agilent recommends replacing scratched lenses and other ion source parts regularly.
