Does the job, but it will not be my 1st choice for a single quad.

 

Average Rating 2.3

Application Area:

Small molecules identification - high throughput screening

The advantage : can be integrated in chromeleon 6.8. Easy maintenance. Disadvantage: the electronics are of poor quality. Various PCBs have to be regularly replaced. If you suddenly lost signal, your main board has failed. On the 1st system, thermo explained us , it never happen before. After discussion with other MSQ users, it comes out, it was a known failure. We encountered the problem on all the of 8 MSQ run by us. If you are regarding the main board as a consumable and you are ready to invest once the year around 6000euro to replace it, the system works good.
