LCMS-2050

The LCMS-2050 is a single quadrupole mass spectrometer with the most compact instrument size, made possible by the meticulous technologies acquired over the years of mass spectrometry development by Shimadzu. Compact, high-speed, sensitive and simple to use.

Description

SIMPLY EFFORTLESS

Seamless integration with LC by design
In product design, instrument control, and data analysis, we pursued usability as an LC detector.
Superior detection for added confidence
Inherited and condensed Shimadzu’s proprietary technologies for ionization and ion transmission over a wide mass range.
Simply the best-performing single quadrupole mass spectrometer.
Streamlined operation for cost efficiency
Total savings of operation, power consumption and laboratory space to maximize laboratory productivity.
