Triple Quad™ 4500 LC-MS/MS System

Consistent, Reliable Quantitation Around the Clock.

The SCIEX Triple Quad 4500 system took the beloved API 4000 platform and intelligently re-engineered it to set a new benchmark for reliable quantitation. Maximize uptime with a system that can handle even the most difficult matrices with ease. Includes legendary Turbo V™ ion source, QJet® ion guide design, and the ultimate Pulse Counting detector. The 4500 system is a great fit for applications requiring round-the-clock quantitation, with the robustness to handle repeated injections of complex samples and reliability to minimize downtime.

When your lab is faced with lots of samples and impending deadlines, you can't afford an unreliable mass spec system that could put your lab or your reputation at risk. Some mass spec solutions can crack when faced with pressure:

• Data quality erodes during long runs
• Data processing is time consuming and becomes a bottleneck
• Getting immediate answers to solve problems as they arise is impossible

These challenges can be detrimental to your lab's productivity. The 4500 system is designed to conquer them.

Key Features

• Mass Range: 5 – 2000 Da
• Flexible Ionization Options: Options include Electrospray (ESI) ionization and heated nebulizer ionization probes.
• Polarity Switching: 50 msec in MRM and Scheduled MRM modes
• Detector Type: AcQuRate Pulse Counting CEM

 

Cutting Edge and Reliable Technology

Technology You Can Rely On

Maximize uptime with a system that can handle even the most difficult matrices with ease. Includes legendary Turbo V™ ion source, QJet® ion guide design, and the ultimate Pulse Counting detector.

• Turbo V Source

  This legendary source provides high-sensitivity analysis over a wide range of flow rates with quick-change APCI and TurboIonSpray® probes.

• QJet Ion Guide

  The innovative design yields excellent ion containment and operates at high pressure, providing better collisional focusing to enhance ion transmission for ultimate sensitivity.

• AcQuRate™ Pulse Counting Detector

  The detector technology works in combination with a pulse overlap correction algorithm, enabling more accurate and precise ion detection over a wide dynamic range.
