Overview
The ICPMS-2040/2050 Series inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometers combine reduced resource consumption with streamlined analytical workflows via the proprietary Advanced Mini-Torch System. The instruments are designed to lower Argon usage per sample and shorten measurement cycles without requiring special hardware options. Embedded software features, preset methods and maintenance guidance reduce hands-on time and support routine laboratory throughput.

Key messages

• Advanced Mini-Torch System for lower Argon consumption per sample.
• Shorter measurement cycles and high throughput enabled by High-Speed Cell Gas Purging and ProActive Rinsing.
• Automation and preset methods minimise operator intervention and method development time.
