Overview

The NexION 5000 Cleanroom ICP-MS is suitable for cleanroom applications, designed specifically for those requiring the highest level of cleanliness and the lowest background equivalent concentrations (<1 ppt, even in hot plasma). It is equipped with a host of new and proprietary technologies which together surpass traditional triple-quad capabilities and redefine your expectations:

  • Four quadrupoles:
    • First: Quadrupole Ion Deflector (Q0) directs ions to the entrance of the first mass filter
    • Second: Transmission Analyzer Quadrupole 1 (Q1, full-sized for <0.7 amu mass resolution), acts as a mass filter or as an ion guide to direct ions to the Quadrupole Universal Cell
    • Third: Quadrupole Universal Cell (Q2), empowered by dynamic bandpass tuning, prevents side reactions with residual reaction gases in the cell
    • Fourth: Transmission Analyzer Quadrupole 2 (Q3, full-sized for <0.7 amu mass resolution), acts as a mass filter or as an ion guide to direct ions to the detector
  • Extended Dynamic Range (EDR) increases linear dynamic range to 1014, allowing to run both high- and low-concentration analytes in a single analytical run, resulting in fewer re-runs
  • Low maintenance for greater uptime:
    • Triple Cone Interface with patent-pending OmniRing combined with Quadrupole Ion Deflector deliver no maintenance beyond cones, for continual operation and improved stability
    • 34 MHz free-running RF generator offers trouble-free user experience - the plasma is generated by the unique LumiCoil RF load coil, which is passively cooled by the extraction (does not require water or gas cooling), so maintenance-free, eliminating need to replace plasma load coils
  • External status lighting provides easy visibility of state of analysis, optimizing efficiencies
  • Syngistix for ICP-MS software (v. 3.0 or higher) brings together the power of the triple-quad ion optics with automated and user-friendly workflows and a contemporary user interface
  • Certified to be able to be upgraded to meet SEMI S2/S8 (emergency button) delivers ease of integration in cleanroom facilities
