These systems include the QTRAP 6500+ and the Triple Quad 5500, along with their associated LC components such as Exion pumps, racks, and Peak gas generators. These instruments are essential for delivering time critical clinical assays, and the service relies on continuous operational reliability to ensure timely and accurate results.Sciex, as the original equipment manufacturer, is the only provider able to deliver the specialist level of technical support required for these systems.

A lapse in maintenance or support would present a significant risk to service continuity and could negatively impact turnaround times for patient testing.
