Vitesse is a time-of-flight inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer that has been purpose designed to be the ultimate tool for high speed multi-element applications such as laser ablation imaging and nanoparticle analysis. High speed conventional ICP-MS analysis is also possible with a range of sample accessory devices. Additional flexibility is available with an optional full size quadrupole before the reaction cell to improve the selectivity of the chemistries being used to remove difficult interferences.
The ability to collect mass spectra at between 33kHz and 200kHz without interruption coupled with a segmented reaction cell and high resolution mass spectrometer to remove interferences makes Vitesse a powerful analytical tool. Vitesse is also capable of being used for conventional ICP-MS analysis with the robust detection and patented ion beam attenuation systems combining to allow a dynamic range of 10 orders of magnitude. Combined with the well established Nu Quant data reduction software, Vitesse is a powerful tool for specialist nanoparticle and imaging applications as well as high speed conventional ICP-MS analysis.
