About the Clarus SQ 8 MS System
The Clarus SQ 8 mass spectrometers (MS) are compact benchtop instruments that
produce positive identification and quantitation of compounds separated by the
Clarus 580 and 680 series gas chromatographs, respectively. Even if the compounds
coelute, the mass spectrometer can still positively identify and quantitate each
compound based on spectral data. Clarus SQ 8 C MS is designed to include both
Electron Impact (EI) ionization as well as chemical ionization (CI). The Clarus SQ 8
S and SQ 8 T MS are electron impact (EI) only.

The Clarus MS system is controlled by a PC using TurboMass Software. The
application runs in a Microsoft Windows 7 Professional operating environment. The
software user interface contains color graphics and provides full user interaction
with either the keyboard or the mouse. TurboMass completely controls the GC/MS
system from tuning and data acquisition (scanning or selected ion recording mode),
through quantifying your results. Complete operating instructions of all TurboMass
controls are in the TurboMass Software Guide (part number 09931016), supplied
with the system.
