Tender description

An advanced mass spectrometer is required for research. It should continuously monitor gases and vapours, with specialized interfaces for better analysis. The system needs to quickly detect gases in very small amounts, from less than 100 parts-per-billion to 5 parts-per-billion, which is important for different experiments. It should provide accurate data, respond fast to changes in gas levels, and have advanced tools for analysing results. Plus, it should be customizable to fit our specific needs, like having different mass ranges and mounting options. With this system, we aim to have the latest technology to conduct precise research for various scientific and industrial purposes.
