Cirrus2 TGA Mass Spectrometer |
|
TGA - Mass Spectrometer (TGA - MS) with hardware and software coupling to all major TGA manufacturer's thermal analysis instruments. Also suitable for coupling to microreactors and other thermal analysis equipment.
Cirrus2 TGA - Mass Spectrometer (TGA - MS)The Cirrus2 TGA - Mass Spectrometer (TGA - MS) is a benchtop mass spectrometer offering direct hardware and software coupling for all popular TGA models, microreactors and thermal analysis equipment in general. The heated inert silica capillary inlet and precision triple quadrupole analyser ensure unrivalled stability and sensitivity over the entire 6 decade dynamic range from ppb to percent levels and also includes as standard a soft ionisation feature which greatly simplifies the analysis of complex evolved gas mixtures. The Cirrus TGA - MS comes delivered with the TGA - MS interface of choice, data cable for start/stop signal from the TGA and our latest TGA Sequencer software for hands free operation.

| TGA Mass Spectrometer Sequencer Software:
TGA MS Sequencer Software represents a huge leap forward in the seamless integration of your TGA and Mass Spectrometer. Instead of writing and saving numerous MS data acquisition files (and remembering to open the correct one for the TGA run...) our TGA MS Sequencer software allows multiple MS recipe steps to be set in sequence either before or during the TGA sequence. These recipes are then automatically addressed and initiated on each TGA sequence step without any further user intervention. At the end of each sample run the MS automatically outputs the data in the format required by the TGA (no more modifying spreadsheet header files!) and waits for the next sample load and sequence to start.

TGA Gas Blending Accessory
The TGA Gas Blending accessory allows for independent gas mixture flow control. Up to 8 gas lines can be fed directly into the TGA and controlled in two ways;
1. Cirrus2 TGA-MS NOT present: pre-set gas mixture flow is triggered on and off by the TGA start/stop signal
2. Cirrus2 TGA-MS present: flows/mixtures controlled and can be varied directly from TGA Sequencer software
Four or eight way gas blending channels are available in a compact standalone accessory that can also be configured for corrosive gases.
