Gas chromatograph – mass spectrometer

Crafted with precision, driven by innovation

The M1-GM6100 pairs the upgraded GC6100 gas chromatograph with a high-performance mass spectrometer detector to form a single, coherent GC-MS platform. Advanced control systems and intelligent algorithms hold the experiment continuous and stable from first injection to final report, and the entire system is driven from one software environment that automates sample injection through to data analysis.

Chromatographic separation and mass detection are treated as one measurement chain. Electronic pneumatic control and column oven temperature control hold the front end steady; a high-efficiency inert ion source and a gold-plated molybdenum quadrupole hold the back end clean. Compensation algorithms for temperature and pressure keep that chain in calibration within a day and across days.

Eight consecutive 1 µL injections of 100 fg µL⁻¹ OFN give a peak area precision of 0.87 % and an instrument detection limit of 2.61 fg. Retention time moves by three thousandths of a minute across the set.

System design

Inert ion source
High-efficiency inert ion source

Inert ion source

+Reduces decomposition and delivers reliable mass spectra.
+Fenitrothion on the inert source returns the molecular ion at m/z 277 intact; on a stainless steel source the same compound decomposes and fragment ions appear at m/z 138 and 247.
Gold-plated molybdenum quadrupole
Gold-plated molybdenum quadrupole

Gold-plated molybdenum quadrupole

+12 mm diameter, 200 mm length, 30 mm pre-rod.
+High sensitivity and resolution with strong contamination resistance.
Control from wherever you are
10.1-inch touchscreen terminal

Control from wherever you are

+A 10.1-inch full viewing angle HD capacitive touchscreen with an interactive graphical control interface.
+The SmartLab CDS workstation carries data acquisition, analysis, processing and reporting.
+A browser-based interface enables remote control from phones, tablets and computers.
+Built-in diagnostics, a four-colour LED status strip, carrier gas saver and sleep/wake modes.

Built in

Smart

+An IoT-based dual-core main control board integrates a quad-core main processor with a dual-core coprocessor, enabling smart connectivity and self-diagnostics that prevent unplanned downtime.

Precise

+High-stability, high-precision electronic pneumatic control and column oven temperature control, paired with a high-performance mass spectrometer detector.

Reliable

+A self-tuning PID control system with temperature and pressure compensation algorithms guarantees detection accuracy against environmental variation, within a day and across days.

Flexible

+Compatible with pre-treatment devices and expandable detectors such as FID. Inertisation technology and microfluidic flow control resolve complex analytical challenges without reconfiguration.

Measured performance

Instrument detection limit is calculated as (t × RSD × concentration) / 100, with t at the 99 % confidence level and n − 1 degrees of freedom. Eight consecutive 1 µL injections of 100 fg µL⁻¹ OFN: peak area precision 0.87 %, retention time RSD 0.022 %, IDL 2.61 fg.
