High Resolution GC-TOFMS

Pegasus® GC-HRT+: Ultra-High Performance for Complex Analytical Challenges

Now offering greater sensitivity than ever before, the Pegasus® GC-HRT+ is engineered to meet the demands of today’s most complex analytical workflows. This high-performance mass spectrometer delivers unparalleled mass accuracy, full mass range acquisition at exceptional speed, and superior isotopic abundance and mass resolution—all from a single injection.

At the core of this powerful platform is Folded Flight Path (FFP) technology and a cutting-edge data acquisition system. Together, they enable:

  • Mass resolution of up to 50,000 FWHM

  • Mass accuracies of less than 1 ppm

  • Acquisition rates up to 200 spectra/second

These capabilities empower researchers to uncover more analytes and achieve high-confidence identifications with unprecedented detail and reliability.

 

Features

  • Key Features of the Pegasus® GC-HRT+

    • Unrivaled Mass Accuracy & Peak Capacity
      Achieve mass accuracies of less than 1 ppm and access peak capacity at least twice that of any other mass spectrometer currently on the market—enabling confident identification in even the most complex samples.

    • Encoded Frequent Pushing (EFP)
      This advanced ion pushing technology significantly boosts sensitivity, expands dynamic range, and supports a wide mass range, offering unmatched performance for both targeted and non-targeted analyses.

    • Folded Flight Path (FFP) Technology
      LECO’s proprietary FFP design delivers ultra-high resolution, enhanced sensitivity, and higher-order TOF focusing, all without increasing instrument footprint.

    • KADAS® Acquisition System
      Our patented ion statistics-based KADAS® system minimizes noise, ensures outstanding mass accuracy, and keeps data file sizes manageable—making high-resolution analysis practical and efficient.

    • Ultra High Resolution & HRD
      When analyte ambiguity arises, Ultra High Resolution mode, combined with High Resolution Deconvolution (HRD), separates highly isobaric ions with mass differences as small as ~0.02 amu—providing clarity when it matters most.

    • Multi-Mode Ionization Source (MMS)
      The versatile MMS supports Electron Ionization (EI), Positive Chemical Ionization (PCI), and Electron Capture Negative Ionization (ECNI), giving users comprehensive ionization options for a broad range of applications.
