Small but mighty
The Argus VI SVMS is the smallest volume noble gas mass spectrometer (NG-MS) available on the market. With an internal volume of 700 cm3, the Argus VI SVMS is three times more sensitive than any other NG-MS.
- 5 fixed Faraday detectors + optional CDD minimizes internal volume.
- Patented Beam Deflection Technology caters to a wide range of applications whilst maintaining small sample volume.
- Narrow flight tube to minimize internal volume.
Flexibility for all applications
The patented Beam Deflection Technology (BDT) provides the flexibility to measure the minor 36Ar beam with either a Faraday cup or an electron multiplier, catering for a wide range of applications and sample sizes.
Analysis without compromise
The patented Thermo Scientific™ Emission Suppression Technology (EST) revolutionizes noble gas isotope ratio mass spectrometry.
- Switch off ionization while your sample is equilibrating
- No trade-off between precision and equilibration time
- Start measuring at t0: measure the unfractionated isotopic composition of your sample
- < 0.1% signal stability either side of the dark mode
- < 1s switching time between dark mode and measurement mode
Access the inaccessible
The Thermo Scientific™ 1013 Ω Amplifier Technology has revolutionized the measurement of isotope ratios from low-intensity ion beams.
- Measure low abundance isotopes at high precision
- Avoid single SEM peak hopping and maximize your sample
