Double the throughput of any LC-MS analysis or run two LC-MS applications simultaneously using the Thermo Scientific Vanquish Duo UHPLC Systems for Dual LC-MS. These systems use two individual flow paths that include two pumps, two injectors, and two columns. They feature unique multichannel technology to use two separate LC channels to maximize the use of a single mass spectrometer to increase throughput. Thermo Scientific Aria MX software, featuring an intuitive graphical interface, makes method setup easy and schedules all aspects of the Vanquish Duo for Dual LC-MS system, including scheduling and management for multiple methods on the available two channels, simultaneously.
The Vanquish Duo UHPLC Systems for Dual LC-MS offers two independent flow paths connected to a single mass spectrometer, so two analyses using different eluents and columns, or two identical analyses can be run simultaneously on a single instrument, maximizing throughput and revenue generation.
As the most compact multichannel LC available, the Vanquish Duo UHPLC Systems for Dual LC-MS let you maximize the use of your mass spectrometer without sacrificing bench space.
The fluidic pathways of the Vanquish Duo UHPLC Systems for Dual LC-MS are fully biocompatible and fitted with Thermo Scientific Viper fingertight fittings, which support near-zero dead volume connections and enable sharper peaks and tool-free setup.
Thermo Scientific Aria MX software manages and controls pump operation, valve switching, cleaning, and gradients. Quickly develop methods and run batches of samples while managing multiple LC-MS methods on multiple channels simultaneously. Aria MX software is compatible with Thermo Scientific XCalibur or TraceFinder software.
Our dual LC-MS system allows you to run two of the same or two different applications simultaneously using one mass spectrometer. Two channels run staggered LC-MS analyses, ensuring the mass spectrometer is never idle. The diagram below illustrates the resulting MS signal when running two different applications on the Vanquish Duo for Dual LC-MS.
