Atmospheric Pressure Interface for the Modular ioniTOF Platform

The flexible and modular ioniTOF-MS platform for research & OEM

The ioniTOF is our modular and flexible, entry-level to high-resolution Time-of-Flight platform, featuring custom interfaces and high-performance IONICON hexapole ION-GUIDEs. All our renowned PTR-TOFMS seriesproducts are exclusively based on the ioniTOF. Now we took this concept one step further and developed an Atmospheric Pressure Interface for the ioniTOF.

The “ioni” APi-TOF presented at our EGU 2018 booth

We presented our new “ioni”APi-TOF, which has already been field-tested during the last CLOUD campaign experiments at CERN, at the EGU assembly in Vienna and just a couple of days ago also at the ASMS annual conference in San Diego.

The new IONICON APi-TOF with its advanced hexapole ION-GUIDES

The novel IONICON APi-TOF is a compact and robust set-up consisting of one or two interconnected APi-TOFs used in parallel (for simultaneous positive and negative polarity) featuring the advanced IONICON hexapole ION-GUIDE technology, enabling:

• simultaneous detection of positive and negative ions and
• a broader detectable m/z range than established designs

The new ioniAPi-TOF solves two major issues of other current commercial APi-TOF setups:

• only one polarity (positive or negative ion mode) is available and
• the m/z range of the ions of interest need to be chosen carefully since other TOFs with quadrupole ion-guides can only be tuned on lower or higher m/z but not to cover the whole mass range.

Thus, particularly in atmospheric chemistry and environmental research important data will be inevitably lost if the ions do not match these parameters.
