The Orbitrap Exploris 480 is a flagship quadrupole-Orbitrap mass spectrometer from Thermo Fisher Scientific, combining a standard mass range of m/z 40–6,000 (up to m/z 8,000 with BioPharma option), resolution up to 480,000 at m/z 200, and scan rates up to 40 Hz at resolution setting 7,500. Mass accuracy is below 3 ppm RMS with external calibration over 24 hours, with polarity switching completing one full cycle in under 1 second. The instrument features a compact footprint enabled by a single turbo-pump with six-stage pumping, resulting in fewer moving parts, lower electricity consumption, reduced noise, and lower weight. Designed for proteomics, biopharma, and translational research, it supports both exploratory and targeted quantitation workflows. Thermofisher + 2
