Chemical instrumentation Consolidated Electrodynamics (Bell 8 Howell) This company, frequently known by its initials CEC, has one of thr more extensivc lines of mass spectrometers manufactured in America. The most elaborate of these is Model 21-110, a doublefocus mass spectrometer and spectrograph with MattauchHerzog geometry (Fig. 27). I t offers sample-handling facilities for gascs, liquids, and solids. A variety of ion sources can be employed, including electron bombardment, K F spark, surface ionization, and Knudsen cell. Detection is by photoplate, electrometer, or electron multiplier. Resolution with the gas source is a t least 30,000 (10% ',valley definition), with the spark source, 2000 or better. The mass range extends to 2500 arnu ($100-120).

The multiple source unit is seen a t the left-hand end of the spectrometer tube; the electric rector oppeors just over the fourth electronk panel; the magnetic 3ector is next, followed by the multiplier detector and [behind it) the photoplate looding mechanism. The racks to the right carry doto-proces3ing ond recording equipment.

The CEC Model 21-104 (Fig. 28) is a. high-precision, general-purpose instrument with a 180" magnetic sector. I t covers the range up to 2000 amu. The resolution is norrndly 600 (10% valley), but can be increased to about 2500 by reducing the width of the collector slit, with a concomitant reduction in sensitivity ($4&60).

This increases tho resolution to about 25,000. These models are intended for general organic and allied applications including gas chromatography.

J o h n s t o n Laboratories, Inc. Figure 34 shows the external appearance of a unique instrument called a Coincidence Mass Spectrometer. I t consists of a time-of-flight spectrometer in which secondary electrons produced in the ionizing events are pulled out of the ianiring beam in the opposito direction from thc flight path far positive ions. Then if thc rate of production of ions is not too great (less than lo4 ions per second) each individual ion and its associated electron can he detected separately. The time takcn by the cloctron to reach its detector is negligible compared to the time required for the ion to traverse the 100-cm drift tube to its detector. Hence the elapsed time between ~ignnlsfrom the two detectors will h e n measure of the velocity of the ion as aeceleratcd hy an applied potential, hcncc a measure of its m / e rntio. This timo lag is converted to pulse amplitude by a time-to-pnlse hright converter and fed to n conventional pulse-height nndyzer. This allows aimultnneous accumulation of the entire mass spectrum, or any portion of it, with continuous visual display on an oscilloscope of the spectrum as it sccumulates. This spectrometer is well suited to measurements of extremely tenuous ssmples or of low-efficiency ioniring processes. For

section is provided with temperature eontrol for isothermal or programmed operation, 25-350°C. It is connected to the mass analyzer through a patented helium separator which gives a hundredfold enrichment. Provision is made for introducing samples to the mass spectrometer without the use of the chromatograph. Masses can he observed up to 1200 amu with unit resolution of 1000 (10% v d e y ; $45). The LKB-9000 has several accessories of npocial interert. One of these is a mass marker, far which a Hall-effect probe is mounted in the field of the electromagnet. Thc output voltage from tho probe is amplified, squared, and digitized, and the resulting signel used to imprint mess cdibration marks on tho oscillograph paper. A second accessory is s, peak matcher, a cathode-ray oscilloscope with associated d k a d e resistances, which permit two peaks to he brought into apparent superposition in such a way that the ratio of their masses

The mass range is specified as 1-500 amu with a resolr~tion of 250 (10% valley; $100). LKB Instruments, Inc. The LKB-9000 is an integrated combination of gas chromatograph and 60%ector mass spectrometer (Fig. 35). The GC

Chemical lnstrumentatien can he determined precisely. This enables one to establish m/e values to better than 10 ppm. Another accessory is an accelerating-voltage alternator. This unit switches the accelerating voltage rapidly between two or three mass numbers (within 10% of each other). This is particularly useful in the simultmeous observation of two or three species unresolved by the gas chromatograph. A magnetic tape data acquisition system is also available.

Nuclide Corporation In addition to eustom-designing maw spectrometers, Nuclide offers several standard models. The 12-90-G is a general-purpose ~pectrometerwith a 90" mngnetic sector which covers thc rnngr 1-3500 amu with resolution of 3000 (1% contribution; $40-60). Model 6-60-G is similar, hut with a smallcr radius magnet of 60" angle. I t s range cxtends t o 2000 amu, resolution 1500 ($35-45). 130th of these models use many components in common and may be assembled in many configurations. A time-of-flight spectrometer is also available, ns Model TOF-1. I t s range is 150 amu, resolution 60 ($14). Nuclide lists a variety of other sperinlpurpose spectrometers.

Perkin-Elmer Corporation P-IS ha8 one model (270) mado in their Connecticut plant, and sevcrd (designntions starting with RM) imported from Hitachi in Japan. Thc Model 270 (Fig. 36) is n Nier-Johnson instn~mentdesigned specifically for g m ehromatogrsphie use. A modified version of the P-Ji Model '900 Gas Chromatograph is built in as an integral part of the 270, but can be bypassed for conventional introduction of liquid and solid samples into the ionization chamber. The mass range cxtends to 3300 amu with unit resolution 850 (loyo valley; $30).
