Product description

Robust ion trap LC-MS/MS with fast polarity switching and dynamic exclusion, optimized for bioprocessing and molecular diagnostics.

The Thermo Scientific LCQ Fleet is a high-performance ion trap mass spectrometer engineered for complex sample analysis in biotechnology, clinical diagnostics, and molecular biology research. This LC-MS/MS system incorporates advanced features, including:

  • Fast positive/negative polarity switching for rapid analysis of diverse analytes
  • Dynamic exclusion technology enhancing detection of low-intensity ions critical for detailed molecular profiling
  • A differentially-pumped vacuum system ensuring optimal ion transmission and system stability
  • Proprietary conversion dynode detector that improves ion detection sensitivity and dynamic range
  • Integrated syringe pump facilitating seamless sample introduction and compatibility with fast HPLC workflows

This system supports a broad mass range (m/z 15–4000) with a linear dynamic range spanning at least four orders of magnitude, making it suitable for applications in bioprocessing, synthetic biology, and molecular cloning workflows requiring precise molecular diagnostics. It operates on a voltage of 230V at 50/60 Hz, measuring 56 cm x 79 cm x 59 cm and weighing approximately 120 kg.

While this preowned instrument powers on with essential indicators functioning (green power, orange vacuum and communication lights), full operational validation requires calibration and software installation. The unit includes an ion source but lacks an ion sweep cone. Its robust design and modular components make it widely adopted in biotechnology research environments that demand reliable tandem mass spectrometry with ion trap technology.

Ideal for researchers and laboratory professionals engaged in biomedical engineering, live-cell analysis, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines, the LCQ Fleet offers critical capabilities to facilitate high-throughput proteomics, metabolomics, and molecular diagnostics workflows.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
