New MS Provides All-Digital Detection of Signals over 10 Orders of Magnitude

The newly developed mass spectrometer with inductively coupled plasma from Analytik Jena (Germany), PlasmaQuant MS, provides ADD¹⁰ – the all-digital detection technology covering 10 orders of magnitude linear dynamic range. Equipped with advanced control technology the ADD¹⁰ automatically dilutes signals up to 4 orders of magnitude electronically. This guarantees optimum signal detection independent from the concentration level of an element in the sample. The ADD¹⁰ thus emphasises the flexible and user-friendly concept of PlasmaQuant MS systems.

In addition to that, this technology enables a previously unattained detector lifetime, thereby improving the efficiency of the system in daily laboratory use.

Features include: All-digital detection over 10 orders of magnitude, Automatic attenuation of strong signals depending on the element concentration, User friendly operation and simple optimisation, No recalibration of factors, no cross-calibration required, and Extended detector lifetime by advanced control technology.
