Agilent JetClean self-cleaning ion source for GC/MS

Agilent JetClean self-cleaning ion source

Want to reduce or eliminate manual GC/MS source cleaning?

The Agilent JetClean self-cleaning ion source greatly
reduces—or even eliminates—the need for source cleaning on Agilent single and triple quadrupole GC/MS systems.*

A controlled flow of hydrogen keeps the ion source free from contamination, protecting the integrity of your results. There’s no disassembly, scrubbing, or recalibration required.

Excludes diffusion pump systems. Certain older Agilent GC/MS systems are not compatible with JetClean. Ask your Agilent representative for more information.

What other JetClean users are saying…

“We had to clean the ion source on our previous, non-Agilent GC/MS about once every two weeks. Since we started using the Agilent GC/MSD with JetClean, the source has been cleaned once in nine months. [That means] our instrument spends more time running samples and generating data—and our users spend less time having to remove, clean, and reinstall the source.”

Dr. Noga Sikron Persi
Ben-Gurion University Metabolomics Laboratory

“Our laboratory carries out pesticide residue analysis with the Agilent 7000 GC/MS/MS… To satisfy SANCO-defined QA/QC specifications with [varied] samples, the GC/MS source usually had to be cleaned every two weeks. After installing the JetClean system, the frequency of the manual source cleaning has been greatly reduced. We now manually clean the source only once in every three months. This increased productivity and freed up operator time is greatly appreciated.”
