Triple Quad™ 5500+ System - QTRAP® Ready

Engineered to deliver best-in-class quantitative analysis.

The best just got better. The SCIEX Triple Quad™ 5500+ system is equipped to conquer your laboratory’s most complex workflows and opportunities. With this LC-MS/MS system, you have the sensitivity and performance to meet analytical and regulatory demands for low-level trace detection with ease.

Triple Quad LC-MS/MS systems deliver superior quantitative results in a single injection workflow. When you activate the optional QTRAP functionality, your instrument acts as a linear ion trap (LIT). This allows you to acquire even more data from your sample without sacrificing the sensitivity or quality of your multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) analysis. The QTRAP technology incorporates additional scan types, such as MRM³ (MS/MS/MS), enhanced product ion scans (EPI) and many more. The additional scans can run at the same time you are acquiring your MRM, without any impact on performance or quality of data.

The SCIEX 5500+ system is built on a legacy of cutting-edge engineering innovation. The quality and care are evident in the design of this mass spectrometer. The ion path contains multiple unique technological advances that will enable your laboratory to produce superior results.

Whether you are focusing on pharmaceutical drug discovery workflows, clinical research, food and beverage testing, complex environmental analysis, academic studies, or searching for answers from crucial forensic samples, the 5500+ system is equipped to handle the challenge.

The modular framework of the 5500+ system enables additional component upgrades to enhance your data. The instrument is compatible with SelexION differential mobility spectrometry which delivers exceptional selectivity of isobaric compounds. If your workflow demands low flow rates, the OptiFlow Turbo V ion source is the ideal technology to achieve your goals. Optimized for microflow chromatography, the OptiFlow ion source can further increase sensitivity, improve selectivity and reduce the consumption of solvents and other consumables.
