Thermo Scientific EQuan MAX Plus LC-MS automated system for water and beverage analysis

The Thermo Scientific EQuan MAX Plus LC-MS is a turnkey, automated LC-MS (liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry) system for water and beverage analysis designed to allow immediate user productivity and reduce human error by automating manual procedures.

The system is suitable for analysing water and beverages for trace amounts of pesticides, pharmaceuticals, personal care products, endocrine disruptors and perfluorinated compounds.

It includes Dionex Ultimate 3000 UHPLC pumps for productivity, precision and ruggedness. The system accommodates multiple benchtop configurations, including single stack, multiple stack, MS on left and MS on right.

Three mass spectrometer options are available: the Exactive Plus high-resolution accurate mass mass spectrometer for non-targeted screening and quantitation; the TSQ-series triple-stage quadrupole mass spectrometer for targeted screening and quantitation; and the Q Exactive hybrid quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer for targeted or non-targeted screening, quantitation and confirmation.
