Chromatographic acquisition software
24-bit acquisition system interfaces to computer via USB, meaning that no board needs to be installed, and is compatible with leading software packages
The fast conversion time of the replacement electrometer can be used for either faster scan speed or signal averaging.
A special configuration of the ADC is used to increase the dynamic of the measure when performing SIM.
The MStation is designed to be fully independent of the PC.
The acquisition software will not slow down or stop even in the case of a PC crash.
The MStation uses a large memory buffer to store the data to ensure no delay while scanning the mass spectrometer.
At full acquisition speed the system can record profile spectra over the entire mass range without slowing down.
The increased bandwidth allows the scanning of spectra with a resolution of 20 points / mass.
The ability to perform both SIM and scan during the course of an analysis makes the detection of semi-volatiles, Pesticides, etc, an easier task.
