JetClean Self-Cleaning Ion Source
Agilent JetClean ion source utilizes software-controlled hydrogen flow to reduce or prevent contamination buildup and eliminate matrix deposits in the ion source. JetClean automated cleaning ion source not only increases instrument uptime, but yields more consistent data and reduces rework, giving you greater confidence in the results and real cost savings at the same time.

Product Details
- Reduce manual cleaning frequency by 80% or more, depending on the application, for significantly extended maintenance-free operation periods
- Increase productivity by reducing or even eliminating time spent venting, disassembling, cleaning, reassembling, retuning, and recalibrating the instrument, for extended instrument operational time and reduced operator workload
- JetClean operations can be automatically activated at preset times without manual interaction, e.g., during idle periods
- Perform cleaning during analysis with the Acquire and Clean (concurrent) mode, or introduce hydrogen only when the system needs to be cleaned, post-acquisition, with Clean only (post-run) mode
- Requires only very low consumption of H2. Hydrogen can be provided in multiple ways, including from lecture bottles.
- Operations are controlled by Agilent MassHunter Software, allowing easy access to acquisition control, method development, qualitative and quantitative analysis, and reporting, while single quadrupole instruments are similarly controlled via OpenLab 2.3 software
- Available on Agilent 5977C, 7000E, and 7010D GC/MS systems, and Agilent Intuvo, 8890, and 7890 GCs are compatible with JetClean operation
- Available as an upgrade for existing Agilent 5975, 5977, 7000, and 7010 GC/MS systems

"The nature of our work meant we had to clean the ion source on our previous, non-Agilent GC/MS about once every 2 weeks. Since we started using the Agilent GC/MSD with JetClean, the source has been cleaned once in 9 months meaning our instrument spends more time running samples and generating data—and our users spend less time having to remove, clean, and reinstall the source. JetClean has been a tremendous benefit on instrument uptime and lab productivity."

"Our laboratory carries out pesticide residue analysis with the Agilent 7000 GC/MS/MS. The samples include common fruits and vegetables, but we also analyze more difficult herbal samples, and monitor baby food, which has lower detection requirements. To satisfy SANCO defined QA/QC specifications with these varied samples, the GC/MS source usually had to be cleaned every 2 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 3 months. This increased productivity and freed up operator time is greatly appreciated."

"We analyzed the EN QuEChERS in various food extracts – e.g. chard, apple, plum, peppers and spinach in the working range of 0.1 – 250 ppb (in vial) using internal standards, Analyte Protectants and employing the high efficiency source. Without JetClean, manual source cleaning was needed after 200-300 matrix runs. Applying JetClean after each run, manual cleaning was only needed after 600-900 matrix runs, thus, instrument up-time was increased by several-fold and associated cost-savings were realized."
