- Upgradable to High-Sensitivity PTR-MS 500
Overview
The PTR-QMS 500 is a very sensitive real-time monitor for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and has a detection limit of < 30 pptv.
The PTR-QMS 500 outpaces most offerings in the market and represents the 4th and most advanced generation of IONICON PTR-MS systems. It is the successor of the IONICON Standard PTR-MS, a trusted solution of many scientists.
The IONICON PTR-QMS 500 continuously quantifies VOCs very low concentrations. Direct whole air sampling without preparation, straight forward handling and absolute quantification of volatile compounds in real-time is common to all IONICON PTR-MS instruments.
It features a touchscreen display allowing for one-button control of the system and even preconfigured analysis tasks in combination with an optional embedded industrial computer and individualized software packages.
The main focus of the PTR-QMS 500 is research or laboratory use being operated using the comprehensive IONICON PTR-QMS series software suite, available on an external notebook computer where the internal touchscreen is used as status indicator.
We provide flexible inlet solutions such as the integrated multi-position capability and the possibility to optionally upgrade the PTR-QMS 500 with multiplexing and data interface units thus bringing down the costs per sampling point and simplifying the integration in existing monitoring network infrastructure.
