IONICON launches the new PTR-QMS 300 replacing the successful Compact PTR-MS

The Compact PTR-MS was presented to the market in 2003 as a very innovative, small and lightweight PTR-MS entry-level model for research or process monitoring applications where a remarkable detection limit of below 1 ppbv was reached with this lean set-up.

The Compact PTR-MS was immediately accepted as an ideal instrument for customers who are in need of routine analysis provided by a benchtop PTR-MS with a very moderate price tag.

Over the last couple of years we collected your feedback and continuously improved our technology and instruments.

The new PTR-QMS 300 is the outcome of focused R&D efforts and cooperation with our customers and institutional partners.  Now we can present a completely revised instrument design to you and these are the most outstanding features:

Hello and a very warm welcome to IONICON News & Views!

I am Lukas and most of you, our valued customers, users of our instruments, partners, friends and maybe even some of you interested surfers on the web may know me from emails, phone calls but also conferences and other events.

I have the honor and it’s a pleasure for me to launch our new corporate blog, by going live with this first post.

This website is intended as a platform, allowing us to present news and updates from various PTR-MS related topics to you.

I am looking for your comments and hope for an interesting exchange in the PTR-MS community.

This blog is BETA and we’ll fine tune over the next couple of weeks hence I’d be glad for your feedback!

Take care!

Lukas
