X-Pulse 90

X-Pulse 90 is a revolutionary new benchtop nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) 

spectrometer that brings broadband NMR to the benchtop at 90 MHz 

for the first time. X-Pulse 90 is the ideal instrument for flexible chemical 

analysis, across a wide variety of applications, as it enables investigation 

of the largest number of nuclei without compromising performance.

X-Pulse 90 continues the X-Pulse ethos of modularity, versatility, and upgradeability, and as such can be tailored to your needs, for example, with a flow cell to monitor real-time reactions, or the addition of variable temperature capability. Additionally, the unique, user exchangeable probe enables the setup to be easily changed depending on the requirements (e.g. highest signal to noise (SNR) performance versus multiple nuclei), as well as ease of access for cleaning.

X-Pulse’s unique features that will benefit your workflow:

  • Broadband capability enables the largest number of nuclei to be measured on a benchtop NMR spectrometer without compromising sensitivity
  • A wide variable temperature range option of 0-60°C allowing users to thoroughly investigate reaction kinetics or characterise electrolyte properties
  • The orientation of the diffusion gradient ensures accurate measurement, even in flow experiments
  • User exchangeable probes mean no compromise between versatility and sensitivity
  • User removeable probe ensures minimal machine downtime for breakages and spills

Benchtop NMR is a spectroscopic technique that provides structural and quantitative insights into liquid chemical samples. The minimal sample prep and non-invasive, non-destructive nature make it perfect for complementing any existing analysis techniques. Benchtop NMR can easily be brought to the lab, and when coupled with a flow cell and X-Pulse broadband capabilities, provide real time monitoring of many nuclei within a sample. To speed up analysis, X-Pulse 90 can be fitted with a 25 position autosampler allowing ‘hands free’ analysis that reduces time spent in front of the instrument and maximises instrument use.

The broadband channel on X-Pulse 90 is freely tuneable from ²⁹Si to ³¹P. This capability makes X-Pulse the most versatile benchtop NMR spectrometer available, and means you can select the nuclei suitable for your research. For example. ¹H, ¹³C, ⁷Li for battery applications; ²⁹Si for polymers; or more exotic nuclei such as ⁵⁵Mn, ⁵⁹Co or ¹⁹⁵Pt for catalysis or inorganic synthesis.

With a magnetic field of 90 MHz (2.1 T), X-Pulse 90 allows users to separate challenging peak overlaps and positively identify compounds of interest in samples. The increased spectral dispersion means that a peak that is hard to distinguish with a lower magnetic field is now separated and easily identifiable. The increased sensitivity of X-Pulse 90 also enables detection and accurate measurement of molecules with a lower concentration, such as mass limited samples or when dealing with active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). The increased sensitivity and peak separation also enable much faster 2D experiments, even on larger molecules.

Our acquisition software, SpinFlow, is easy-to-use and suitable for all levels of operators from experts to infrequent users.
