Reliable performance

Achieve your objectives in full with operational performance you can rely on. A Xevo TQ-S cronos study analyzing mycotoxins in wheat flour (a complex matrix that can contaminate LC-MS instrumentation) showed consistent performance over 5 days of continuous use with 1,000 injections and only 3–8% relative standard deviation (RSD) for peak areas.


Affordable instrumentation and support

Cover your key applications with a robust and cost-efficient instrument that delivers reliable results. The Xevo TQ-S cronos can be applied to key demanding applications such as the quantification of nitrosamines in drug products1 and quantification of pesticides in fruits, vegetables and cereals.2

Ensure your laboratory runs efficiently and is ready to address the opportunities of tomorrow with Waters comprehensive analytical solutions with expert training (APS) and flexible and cost-effective solutions to advance your business with system service (FlexCHOICE), trade-ins, and technological upgrades (FlexUP).

 


Achieve more with less

The Xevo TQ-S cronos is 2–3X narrower than most other instruments in its class reducing laboratory space overhead costs.

Use of the Xevo TQ-S cronos consumes up to 35% lower electrical power and produces up to 35% less heat than the equivalent competitor products.


Ensure optimum productivity with flexible software options

Achieve the ultimate flexibility to choose the right solution for your lab with our flexible software options for quantitation - the waters_connect and MassLynx software platforms. Our modern, app-based software platform waters_connect delivers efficiency and usability benefits, including the unique Exception Focused Review (XFR) functionality that can save up to 50% of your data review time and ensures your lab is as productive as possible. Meanwhile, our tried, well-established MassLynx Software package delivers superior versatility and flexibility across all application areas.

Flexibility to meet your analytical needs

With the most commonly used atmospheric pressure ionization source of ESI as standard, simply change chromatographic inlets or ionization sources to extend your analytical capacity and meet changing demands
