. . . due to the inherent linear mass display of our Quadrupole Mass Spectrometers.
But with our System/150 computer controlled GC/MS system...
. . . mass spectra interpretation becomes almost trivial.
You can spend more time as a chemist less time as a technician, because System/150: Saves time. • It runs unattended-computer controls MS scan. • It doesn't miss a thing-computer acquires and stores all spectral data. • It selects important data-computer can monitor only mass regions of interest. Ο It keeps you informed—plots a gas chromatogram in real time. Extracts even the smallest peaks from noise. • It finds the maximum signal—computer control monitors peak tops only. • It reduces noise-computer time av eraging improves signal-to-noise ratio up to 15 times. Provides positive identification of mass numbers. • It calibrates automatically-the operator does not have to identify reference peaks to allow the computer to calibrate. • It calibrates to a known reference com pound—absolute, fool-proof calibration. • It labels all components—computer assigns correct mass numbers

to spectra. • It identifies mass defects-computer locates peak maximum to 0.1 amu. Simplifies spectra interpretation. • It identifies GC peaks-correlates selected mass fragments to the chromatogram. • It does the arithmetic-both relative abundance and percent total ion intensity are provided. I I It eliminates contaminants—background spectra due to GC column bleed and other impurities can be sub tracted. • It shows you even the smallest peak—low intensity peaks can be expanded for closer visual examination. • It eliminates the paperwork-all spec tral data can be stored on magnetic tape for post-run processing or historical files.
