solariX XR

eXtreme Resolution for a Wide Variety of Analytical Workflows

Continuing Bruker's tradition of innovation, the ParaCell is the new core technology for solariX XR, providing uncommon broadband ion stability resulting in resolution far superior to other detection schemes.

Key Benefits

  • Analytical power—unmatched in commercial mass spectrometry provides the capability to create new workflows and explore the chemical landscape in ways not conceivable before.
  • Flexibility­—combining one of the widest array of sources available with an armada of both traditional and unique dissociation methods providing experimental flexibility that supercharges every application and allowing you to accelerate your workflows.
  • Speed—­high performance and flexibility translates to faster, streamlined workflows reengineering traditional approaches with tuned methods that save time and money and produce richer datasets in a given time than ever seen before.
  • Turnkey operation­­—advanced software for acquisition, processing and automation combined with a robust source design and fully automated transfer optics provide compelling results with limited user effort.
