• Proven leadership
• Sensitivity combined with robustness for ultimate
confidence in routine analysis
• Exceptional productivity and flexibility with unique
options for double-GC and DualData XL
configurations
• Future committed
The Thermo Scientific™ DFS™ Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS
is the gold standard for performing Dioxin and Persistent
Organic Pollutants (POPs) analysis. It empowers you to
achieve full compliance with any ocial Dioxins, PCB, or
PBDE method around the world.
For over a decade, the global scientific community has
chosen Thermo Scientific DFS Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS
for its superior performance in routine quantitative analysis
of Dioxins and POPs. Today, the DFS Magnetic Sector
GC-HRMS continues to set the gold standard in providing
robust performance and high-confidence results.
Global compliance
Contamination of food and the environment are
global concerns. Both food import-export control and
environmental analyses require compliance with numerous
government and analytical methods. The DFS Magnetic
Sector GC-HRMS is the only GC-MS compliant with any
existing ocial methods and regulations, including US EPA,
EU, and JIS methods.
Proven leadership
Thermo Fisher Scientific is committed to providing
solutions that enable our customers to lead in the analysis
of Dioxins and POPs. With proven technology, the
DFS Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS is the system of choice
for experts who desire ultimate analytical confidence and
routine reliability.
Future committed
Innovation and support for the DFS Magnetic Sector
GC-HRMS are aimed at addressing emerging needs and
new regulatory methods—today and into the future.
Hardware specifications
Ion source
The ion source has been designed with special emphasis
on sensitivity and durability for increased productivity, low
maintenance and increased uptime.
• Plug-in ion source with optimized box design for quick
exchange including built in ion extraction lens for ease
of maintenance
• Exchange of ion volume and filament without venting
• Optimized long lifetime filaments for EI and CI
Ultimate confidence and robustness
Failing to determine if samples are non-compliant or toxic
can have serious consequences. You need to be sure of
your analysis and the defensibility of your data. The
DFS Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS provides robust, confident
quantitation, down to very low femtogram levels.
Exceptional productivity and flexibility
Labs face a wide array of sample loads and application
demands. To meet these needs, the DFS Magnetic
Sector GC-HRMS can be equipped with up to two
Thermo Scientific™ TRACE GCs and four GC columns.
Add the DualData XL Module to maximize sample
throughput with up to twice as many injections per unit
time compared to a single GC system. Multiple ionization
modes and probe choices provide unmatched analytical
flexibility.
• Independent source temperature control
• Simple source design – clean quickly
• Inert composition – clean less frequently
Reference inlet
An independent reference calibrant system that is
continuously flow adjustable and can be individually
evacuated and heated. It allows syringe introduction of
liquid or gaseous samples. By separating the reference
inlet from the GC interface, maintainance is reduced and
uptime maximized.
Vacuum interlock
The DFS Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS is equipped with a
vacuum interlock for quick exchange of ionization volumes
and filaments without venting.
• Pneumatically actuated by system control
• Eliminates improper manual operation
Tuning
The DFS Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS uses the same
Thermo Scientific tuning software found on other
Thermo Scientific GC/MS & LC/MS solutions; TunePlus™.
Designed with automation and simplicity in mind; the tuning
process, experiment and sequence set-up is intuitive and
rapid. The DFS Magnetic Sector GC-HRMS enables the
reliable, routine use of AUTOTUNE in all ionization modes
without restrictions, including slit control and automated
resolution settings.
