| Description | Shimadzu’s LCMS RX series of triple quadrupole mass spectrometry instruments are supported by integrated hardware and software technologies to ensure ultrafast performance and reliable, robust results at lower operating costs, even under the most challenging and dynamic laboratory environments. The Shimadzu’s LCMS RX series of triple quadrupole mass spectrometry instruments are supported by integrated hardware and software technologies to ensure ultrafast performance and reliable, robust results at lower operating costs, even under the most challenging and dynamic laboratory environments. The RX Series incorporates patented Ultra Fast Mass Spectrometry (UFMS) technologies to deliver a polarity switching time of 5 msec, data acquisition scan speed of 30,000 u/sec, and ultra-fast MRM measurements up to 555 ch/sec, setting a new standard for dependable data acquisition and robust performance.
A suite of innovative technologies introduced with the RX series sets a new benchmark for reliability, resilience and responsibility:
- CoreSpray™ gas delivery system – enhances reliability by increasing gas flow and improving nebulizer coaxiality. This improves the heat distribution of the ionization source, ensuring unparalleled sample ionization, significantly enhancing the reliability of analytical data.
-
IonFocus™ electrode – effectively removes matrix contaminants, resulting in lower noise levels, superior data quality and reduced maintenance needs.
-
Heated ESI Probe – promotes the ionization of wide range of targeted compounds
-
Performance Concierge – proactively evaluates system performance with a standard solution, troubleshoots problems, and notifies operators of maintenance needs, effectively minimizing instrument downtime.
-
Enhanced software capabilities – autonomously monitor the system, reducing the need for manual intervention
The RX series consists of the following models:
- LCMS-8060RX: premier system offers world-class sensitivity, rapid analysis capabilities and remarkable robustness
-
LCMS-8050RX: high-speed operation, excellent sensitivity, and trusted reliability in a robust, easy-to-use design
-
LCMS-8045RX: ideal for routine analysis, delivering a balance of robustness, sensitivity and cost-effectiveness
The LCMS RX series enables responsible operation for lower laboratory costs and reduced environmental impact. These instruments provide an Ecology Mode function that automatically checks system status and shuts the instrument down after sample queues are completed. This reduction in power consumption minimizes the running cost of the laboratory and consumes less resources....
