Instrument Description - Waters Autospec Premier Operator's Manual

AutoSpec Premier mass spectrometer
The EBE design has an electric sector (electrostatic analyzer [ESA]) on each
side of the magnetic sector. The first electric sector (ESA1) has demagnifying
optics, which give high resolution and sensitivity. The second electric sector
(ESA2) improves abundance sensitivity, automatically rejects metastable ion
interferences, and reduces background noise.
The instrument can operate in positive and negative ion modes. It has an
off-axis ion detector using a dual conversion dynode and a photomultiplier
tube.
