ACQUITY QDa II Mass Detector
Separate beyond question with the power of mass detection
Single quadrupole mass detection is a highly reliable technique for many different application areas, yet may be considered by some to be challenging to implement. Easy to use and remarkably robust, the ACQUITY QDa II Mass Detector takes single quadrupole performance to the next level. Complementary to optical detection, the ACQUITY QDa II Mass Detector works in harmony with your chromatography to minimize the risk of unexpected components or co-elutions, and confirm trace sample constituents with confidence in a single workflow.
By adding a compact, stackable, and energy efficient mass detector to complement your chromatography system, you can unlock a new realm of productivity and generate an extra dimension of information from your separation knowing that all your sustainability goals are being addressed, without the cost or complexity of traditional mass spectrometry.
