Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer Structural Components

The quadrupole ring, support pieces, brackets and rods are the core structural components of the quadrupole mass analyzer and Quadrupole Mass Filter, and are widely used in various quadrupole mass spectrometers and quality analysis equipment.

 

These components are specifically designed for the precise support, positioning and fixation of the quadrupole group. Their core function is to ensure that the four rods maintain extremely strict relative geometric positions and spacing accuracy in the long-term operation environment of high vacuum and high-frequency radio frequency electric field. This forms the mechanical foundation for achieving an ideal hyperbolic surface electric field distribution, high resolution, high mass accuracy and excellent repeatability of the instrument, which are critical performance requirements of a Quadrupole Mass Filter system.

 

Quadrupole Mass Filter

 

This series of products are made by ultra-precise processing of high-performance special ceramics (alumina), achieving a perfect balance of:
– Outstanding mechanical strength and dimensional stability
– Excellent electrical insulation performance
– Excellent vacuum compatibility (low gas leakage rate)
– High precision processing

 

Typical Application
– Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer
– Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer
– Mass Analysis and Ion Filtration System
– Research and Industrial Analytical Instruments
– Mass Spectrometer Manufacturing and Maintenance Replacement

 

Technical Specifications:
– Materials: High-purity alumina ceramic (Al₂O₃ ≥ 99%)
– Processing accuracy: Key geometric tolerances can reach micrometer level (customizable according to design)
– Temperature resistance: Suitable for high-temperature working environments, meeting the thermal stability requirements of mass spectrometry systems
– Electrical properties: High volume resistivity, excellent dielectric strength and low dielectric loss, suitable for high-frequency RF electric fields
