Prima BT Bench Top Process Mass Spectrometer

The Thermo Scientific Prima BT Bench Top Process Mass Spectrometer achieves rapid scanning speeds and consistent measurements. This device is specifically tailored for process development laboratories and serves as a highly accurate, magnetic sector analyzer with multi-stream sampling capability.

The Prima BT Process Mass Spectrometer delivers strong performance in the presence of off-gases and vapors that could potentially contaminate internal vacuum components. By extracting ions from the ion source at high energy, it ensures excellent stability for low molecular weight compounds such as hydrogen and helium.

Key Features

  • Thermo Scientific GasWorks Software
  • Six-port automatic calibration manifold
  • Scanning magnetic-sector technology
  • 16-port Rapid Multistream Sampler (RMS)
  • High analytical precision, accuracy, and stability
