Ionicon Analytik has introduced the PTR-TOF 6000 X2, which is their first instrument to be based on the new high-resolution release of the “ioniTOF” platform and their PTR technology in combination with new “X2” features. X2 comprises their latest performance tools including the Ion-Booster funnel as well as the hexapole Ion-Guide. The ion funnel focuses the ions into the hexapole ion guide, which results in nearly lossless transmission of an extremely focused ion beam into the TOF mass spectrometer. This increases the sensitivity significantly and improves the instrument’s mass resolving power.
