Technical Specifications

Increased efficiency in MALDI-TOF (/TOF)
  • 2 kHz smartbeam-II laser technology enables ultra-high data acquisition speed.
  • Laser focus diameters down to 10 μm for high spatial resolution imaging without pixel overlap.
  • Wide mass range resolving power up to 26,000 due to proprietary PAN™ technology.
  • FlashDetector™ combined with new 4 GHz digitizer provides 2 ppm mass accuracy for highest confidence.
  • MALDI Perpetual™ Ion Source with laser-based self-cleaning in minutes. Its push-button concept for removing sample and matrix debris is indispensable for kHz operation.
