Reliable Mass Confirmation and Routine Quantitative Analysis

If your laboratory needs reliable mass spectral confirmation and routine quantitative analysis on a practical budget, the Agilent 6130 Single Quadrupole LC/MS with Agilent 1200 Series HPLC delivers a rugged, high-throughput workstation. Powered by the smooth, low-pulsation fluidics of the Agilent 1200 LC front end, this system pairs highly reproducible chromatographic separations with a single quad mass analyzer covering an extended m/z 2 to 3,000 mass range. The system effortlessly switches between full-scan and high-sensitivity Selected Ion Monitoring (SIM) modes, and can be configured with Agilent's optional Multimode (MMI) source to perform simultaneous Electrospray Ionization (ESI) and Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Ionization (APCI) for complex, mixed-polarity sample sets. Built for heavy daily sample loads, its wide linear dynamic range makes it ideal for walk-up synthetic reaction monitoring, pharmaceutical impurity profiling, and routine pesticide screening. Driven by ChemStation or OpenLab CDS and backed by a massive global installed base, this dependable LC/MS platform ensures low long-term operating costs and ready access to replacement wear parts for QA/QC, environmental, and chemical manufacturing laboratories.

Agilent 6130 Quadrupole LC MS with Agilent 1200 HPLC Price and Cost of Ownership: Reliable Performance at Lower Cost

The Agilent 6130 Quadrupole LC/MS System with Agilent 1200 HPLC System provides a reliable and cost-effective solution for laboratories requiring sensitive LC/MS analysis in pharmaceutical, environmental, food safety, chemical, and research applications. Certified refurbished systems typically range from approximately $45,000 to $69,000, offering substantial savings compared to comparable new-generation platforms such as the Agilent LC/MSD iQ Single Quadrupole LC/MS with Agilent 1260 Infinity II HPLC System front end, which commonly range from $140,000 to $185,000 depending on configuration and software options. In addition to the initial acquisition cost, laboratories should consider ongoing operational expenses such as LC solvents, mobile phase additives, analytical columns, nitrogen gas generation or supply, ion source maintenance, vacuum pump servicing, calibration standards, pump seals, tubing, software licensing, preventive maintenance, and compliance-related qualification support for FDA, USP, EPA, ISO, and cGMP workflows. Long-term ownership considerations may also include detector maintenance, replacement electronic components, autosampler servicing, and optional service contracts to maintain reliable chromatographic reproducibility and mass spectrometry performance in high-throughput analytical environments. Purchasing a certified refurbished Agilent 6130 Quadrupole LC/MS System with Agilent 1200 HPLC allows laboratories to significantly reduce capital expenditures while still benefiting from dependable mass-based detection, reliable chromatographic separation, and proven long-term analytical performance for regulated and research-based workflows.
