Page 6: Introduction
1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. About Aston Impact Aston Impact uses mass spectrometry to quantify the composition of constituents in an analyte by filtering associated ions according to their mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) and measuring their abundance. A mass spectrum, consisting of ion signal vs m/z is generated. -

25.4 mm clearance around the Aston Impact if necessary. It is also necessary that the users have easy access to the rear side of the Aston Impact, where the power inlet is located. This is necessary whether the Aston Impact is installed inside an enclosure or not and will allow easy and quick disconnection of power to the unit if necessary. -

Page 13: Side Panel
Below figure shows the side panel of the Aston Impact system. Analytes are fed to Aston Impact through the top inlet port on the side panel. The inlet is a ¼” VCR female connector. There is a second inlet port for the Aston Impact that can be used as sample bypass for fast response time of the mass spectrometer. -
Page 14: System Components And Operation
4. SYSTEM COMPONENTS AND OPERATION The core of Aston Impact is the mass spectrometer (MS). Inside the MS, the analyte is processed in three stages. First, the analyte molecules are ionized in the ion source. The ions are then filtered according to their mass-to-charge (m/z) ratio in a mass filter. After filtering, ions of specific mass are captured in a detector which produces an electric current proportional to the molecule/ion count. -
Page 15: Detector
RF and DC voltages and recording the ion current at each increment. Aston Impact uses a Faraday cup (FC) as a detector. The collected charge is converted to an electric current in a capacitive feedback electro-meter circuit. The electric current is proportional to the number of ions colliding with it. -

Run a web application to provide the user interface for instrument configuration, control, and reporting Aston Impact controller supports different scan types to generate, fragment, and eject ions from the mass filter. The ability to adjust the scan type, and other settings gives flexibility to adapt it to process requirements. -

On receiving a signal from Aston Impact controller, the turbo controller initiates the start- up procedure for the turbo pump. During normal operation, the pump controller monitors the turbo pump for significant changes in turbo speed, operating temperature, and load faults. - Page 18 5.2.8. ®Firefox is a registered trademark of Mozilla. 5.2.9. ®Ubuntu is a registered trademark of Canonical. 5.2.10.
