Peak debuts modular MS Bench system with integrated gas
supply for SCIEX LC-MS/MS
(Peak Scientific – Glasgow, Scotland) Peak Scientific, the global leader in gas
generation for laboratories, today unveiled its latest innovation at the 67th
Annual ASMS Conference in Atlanta with the launch of the all-new MS Bench
system. Developed exclusively for SCIEX, Peak’s MS Bench SCI product line
provides a modular workstation with integrated gas generation and a sounddampening vacuum pump enclosure. MS Bench SCI is designed specifically for
use with the current and latest mass spectrometers at SCIEX (excluding IVD
medical device instruments).
Two variants of the MS SCI Bench are available, both identical in form factor,
aesthetics and work surface. MS Bench (G) SCI features a self-contained gas
generator, providing a reliable and cost-efficient source of both nitrogen (Curtain
Gas™) and clean, dry oil-free air for source and exhaust gas at flows and
pressures configured to meet SCIEX instrument requirements. This is the first
time that Peak’s validated and compliant Genius ‘plug & play’ (no external
compressed air source required) generator technology has been fully integrated
into an LC-MS workbench – providing a unique space-saving option for users of
SCIEX mass spectrometers.
The other variant, the MS Bench SCI, comes without the gas generator and
provides a noise-abated compartment below the bench. It is suitable for housing
up to two MS roughing pumps. Both MS Bench variants are on height-adjustable
laboratory-grade castor wheels for easy mobility and seamless integration with
surrounding lab work surfaces.
“Combining our market-leading and proven Genius LC-MS gas generator platform
with a tailor-engineered modular bench system, the all-new MS Bench (G) SCI
represents another innovation milestone for Peak. Equally, it demonstrates our
ability to deliver customer-centric solutions to meet the specific needs of our major
instrument partners – in this case for SCIEX,” commented Petra Gierga, Product
Manager for Peak Scientific
Paul Johnson, Senior Product Manager (OEM) for SCIEX added,
“SCIEX asked Peak to develop the next generation of benches that meet our
customer requirements while introducing unique usability features. The new MS

Bench SCI product line provides an innovative bench solution to our customers
looking to optimize their lab space and reduce the footprint of their LC-MS system.”
The MS Bench SCI products launch today at ASMS and will be on show in the
Peak hospitality suite. Both systems are expected to be available to ship later in
Q3. Customers can order directly from Peak Scientific and its approved
distribution partners, or from SCIEX as part of a complete packaged LC-MS
solution.
