Triple quadrupole LC-MS/MS system
Ultimate stability, unmatched sensitivity — the flagship LC-MS/MS platform
The M1-TQ9200 is engineered around core proprietary technologies — an ultra-high-pressure linear motor pump, lossless needle-in-flow injection, an actively preheated column oven, a highly stable electrospray ionisation source, a durable vacuum interface, efficient ion transfer lenses and a stable tandem quadrupole driver. Together they deliver exceptional stability, efficiency and robustness, and hold quantitative performance even under complex sample conditions.
A 700 °C symmetrically heated gas system, a large 0.6 mm aperture and off-axis pulsed ion detection combine for exceptional desolvation and detection efficiency. Orthogonal sampling, gold-coated molybdenum quadrupoles and an active exhaust system resist clogging, contamination and memory effects.
Ten consecutive on-column injections of reserpine give 1.052 % RSD for peak area and 0.0 % for retention time; across five thousand consecutive injections of 50 pg reserpine the RSD stays below 5 % — the question that matters for a laboratory running unattended sequences overnight.

Measured performance
Reserpine in MRM mode — ten injections for precision, five thousand for stability. Ten injections measure precision. Five thousand measure whether the ion source, the vacuum interface and the quadrupoles stay clean enough to keep giving the same answer.
