The analyzer operates at high vacuum. Don I need a separate pumping station to regenerate the vacuum periodically?
No. Unlike other portable mass spectrometry-based detectors, the MS-200 is a sealed unit with a novel, onboard pumping system. The amount of gas taken into the analyzer via the two membranes is low and is pumped adequately by the onboard ion pump, maintaining high vacuum in the analyzer. Under typical sampling conditions, the system vacuum is maintained for longer than the life of the detector. At the time of renewal of the detector, the vacuum system is re-generated.
