D/H Mass Spectrometer, an import substitute, is a very versatile analytical instrument. It is used for the measurement of D/H (Deuterium/ Hydrogen) ratio in water and hydrogen samples. It consists of sample inlet system, electron impact ion source, analyzer and faraday cup collectors. Two independent collector assemblies have been incorporated to collect H₂⁺ and HD⁺ ions. It operates around a base pressure of 10^-8 Torr. PC based interface is provided for instrument control & sample analysis.

1. It is compact, reliable and high sensitivity analytical instrument, consisting of a sample inlet system, electron impact ion source, mass analyzer, faraday cup collectors.
2. Turbo molecular pump & ion pump makes the vacuum system.
3. It can analyze water and gas samples.
4. Sample analysis is under computer control.
5. Its precision is ± 0.3 % at natural level.

1. It is used as quality assurance tool in Heavy Water Plants.
2. For research & development in Heavy Water and Catalyst.
3. In isotope hydrology, for studying and interpreting the natural isotope variation in D/H in various natural waters.

The D/H Mass Spectrometer is a versatile analytical instrument. It is used for routine measurement of D/H (Deuterium/ Hydrogen) ratio in water and hydrogen sample. It consists of sample inlet system, electron impact ion source, analyzer and faraday cup collectors. The sample inlet system consists of online reduction system for water samples & an inlet system for gas samples. The electron impact ion source is designed to have high sensitivity and low H₃⁺ formation. The mass analyzer has a radius of 6 cm with deflection angle of 60°. Two independent collector assemblies have been incorporated to collect H₂⁺ and HD⁺ ions. It operates around a base pressure of 10^-8 Torr. The vacuum system of it consists of rotary pump, turbo molecular pump and ion pump to achieve the vacuum of 10^-8 Torr. PC based interface is provided for instrument control & sample analysis.

1. It is used as quality assurance tool in Heavy Water Plants (by the measurement of deuterium enrichment) also in research & development in Heavy Water and Catalyst.
2. It is also used in isotope hydrology for studying and interpreting the natural isotope variation in D/H in various natural waters.
