Thermo Scientific LCQ Fleet Ion Trap Mass Spectrometer with HPLC Integration

The Thermo Scientific LCQ Fleet Ion Trap Mass Spectrometer is a robust analytical instrument widely used in biotechnology and molecular diagnostics for high-throughput complex sample analysis. Designed for seamless integration with HPLC systems, this benchtop mass spectrometer supports both Electrospray Ionization (ESI) and Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization (APCI) techniques, enabling sensitive detection across a mass range of m/z 15–4000.

Key features include:

With a minimum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 100:1, the LCQ Fleet is ideal for reliable molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing quality control. Operating within controlled environmental conditions (15–27 °C, 40–80% humidity), this system is well-suited for diverse applications such as proteomics, metabolomics, and comprehensive biopharmaceutical production pipeline analysis.

This preowned unit shows minimal cosmetic wear, powers on, and requires validation and calibration to ensure precise mass spectrometric performance. The instrument’s 56 cm x 79 cm x 59 cm footprint and 144.24 kg weight make it a practical solution for laboratories aiming to enhance their analytical capabilities.

This ion trap mass spectrometer remains critical in advanced life science research areas including fluorescence analysis, live-cell imaging adjunct workflows, and biotechnology assay development.
