1. DELTA V Advantage Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer produced by Thermo Finnigan

Its sensitivity for CO2 in Dual Inlet mode is better than 1200 molecules per ion. The standard collectr configuration is the Universal Triple Collector. The DELTA V Advantage delivers high performance in Dual Inlet and Continuous Flow mode. Excellent linearity is guaranteed with or without helium carrier gas flow.

Sensitivity Dual Inlet mode Molecules CO2 / mass 44 ion: 1200 M/l

Sensitivity Continuous Flow mode Molecules CO2 / mass 44 ion: 1500 M/l
