Performance data, publications and application examples of IONICON PTR-TOF-MS instruments
Here we would like to share the performance of our PTR-TOFMS series with you. Using specially designed time of flight mass spectrometers in a new generation of PTR-MS instruments we give you the tool for extraordinary results.
Performance data from IONICON PTR-TOF 8000 instruments:
Low Detection Limits
Single digit-pptv level LoD also with a time of flight based PTR-MS (click to enlarge graphs):

High Resolution
Graphs showing measured mass resolution of two PTR-TOF 8000 systems.
A maximum resolution of 7000-8000 can be seen.
