Delivering the Right Results
LECO Corporation: Delivering the Right Results
LECO Corporation has been a leader and innovator in analytical instrumentation since 1936. This
technological drive has led to some of the industry's fastest, most accurate, and cost-effective laboratory
instrumentation in the world. Market-driven, technologically advanced and application-innovative, LECO
brings more technology to more industries that need better, faster answers.
Food: Detection and protection.
Recent scares in the safety of our foods have put new pressure on countries and producers to ensure that the
integrity of our food supply remains intact. Imported, exported, and domestic food products are under global
scrutiny, and LECO addresses these issues with instruments that can analyze and verify the safety of dairy
products, meats, cereals, poultry, beer, and wine. From raw foods to final consumer-ready products, LECO
instruments offer fast, accurate testing and productivity-enhancing features like autoloaders.
AMA254 Advanced Mercury
The AMA254 safely and accurately determines trace amounts of mercury in soils, animal
tissue, liquids, coals, and combustion residues. Results can be obtained in as little as five
minutes using a safe and efficient direct combustion technique, eliminating the need for
hazardous chemicals in the use of sample digestion.

and supports compliance to
FDA regulation 21 CFR Part 11
for a closed analytical system
FP628 Nitrogen/Protein Elemental Analysis
The FP628 makes it possible to achieve fast results in organic matrices from food to fuels.
o
The dual-stage furnace system operates at temperatures up to 1050 C with pure oxygen to
ensure the complete combustion of all organic samples, without requiring additional metal
oxidizing reagents or other carrier gases. A variety of features, including automated
sample loaders, increase sample throughput while maintaining a low cost-per-analysis.
! Rapid analysis times (4-5 minutes) for diverse
organic matrices
! 50 mg to 750 mg sample sizes
! Complies with AOAC, ASTM, ISO, AACC, and
ASBC-approved methods of analysis
! Additional configurations—carbon/nitrogen
and carbon/hydrogen/nitrogen—also
available
! Sulfur add-on module also available
®
TruMac N Nitrogen/Protein Elemental Analysis for Macro Samples
Easily handle characteristically heterogeneous, difficult to prepare, or low-level samples with the
TruMac carbon/nitrogen/sulfur determinator. Macro sample sizes (up to 3 grams for nitrogen;
up to 1.5 grams for carbon/nitrogen; up to 0.3 grams for carbon/nitrogen/sulfur) are quickly
analyzed with a low cost-per-analysis. The TruMac N provides total protein analysis for
customers working with meats, feeds, petfood, or milled products.
! Autoloader for sequential and
non-sequential analysis of up to
50 pre-weighed samples
! Rugged design for improved reliability
and minimal maintenance
! Supports compliance with AOAC, AACC,
AOCS, and ASBC methods of analysis
TGA701 Moisture/Ash/Volatile Matter
The TGA701 is your total solution for fast and robust macro-constituent analysis. Determine
weight loss as total moisture, ash, volatile content, or LOI in various organic, inorganic, and
synthetic materials. The TGA701 is perfect for a variety of industries and applications—including
feeds, milling products, foods, catalysts, coal/coke, and cement.
! Obtain multiple analyses such as moisture,
ash, and volatile matter from one sample
! Analyze 19 samples simultaneously with single
unit, or up to 38 by adding an additional unit
! User-friendly software supports compliance to
FDA regulation 21 CFR Part 11 for a closed
analytical system

Pegasus HT GC-TOFMS
®
The Pegasus HT combines LECO's time-of-flight mass spectrometer with ChromaTOF brand
software to provide revolutionary time-compressed chromatography, complex sample
®
resolution, Automated Peak Find, and True Signal Deconvolution in a high throughput GCMS.
No other system can match the Pegasus TOFMS for speed, accuracy, and proven reliability.
! Continuous full-range mass spectral acquisition rates
up to 500 spectra/second
! Full-range mass sensitivity
! Robust low-maintenance ion source eliminates
downtime associated with source cleaning
! Integrated ChromaTOF brand software with total
automated system control for maximum productivity
Pegasus 4D GCxGC-TOFMS
All the hardware and software features of the Pegasus HT (including full-range mass sensitivity
and mass spectral acquisition rates up to 500 spectra/second) with the added bonus of GCxGC
technology. GCxGC (comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography) adds a second
dimension of chromatographic resolution to the sample analysis. This added separation is the
answer to quantifying and characterizing the most challenging samples.
! Unlike heart-cutting, GCxGC passes all effluent from
the primary column through the secondary column,
maximizing sample resolution
! Comprehensive software package (ChromaTOF)
automatically processes the large amounts of data
obtained through time-of-flight detection
! Consumable-free thermal modulator packages also
available, eliminating the need for costly refrigerants
GCxGC-FID/ECD
LECO comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GCxGC) with FID/ECD
is ideal for solving analytical methods which require superior resolving power over traditional
GC. Whether you need to speciate sulfur-containing compounds in petroleum, separate
halogenated pesticides, or quantify chiral compounds in flavors or fragrances, LECO's GCxGC
options deliver unparalleled separating power and up to an order-of-magnitude increase in
peak detectability.
! More affordable, non-mass spectrometer option
! Consumable-free thermal modulator packages also
available, eliminating the need for costly refrigerants
! Integrated ChromaTOF brand software with total
automated system control for maximum productivity
Pegasus GC-HRT (High Resolution TOFMS)
Developed to withstand the rigor of modern analytical demands, High Resolution TOFMS
technology provides high-performance MS capabilities, including acquisition speed, mass
accuracy, accurate relative isotopic abundance, mass resolution, and dynamic range, all
®

available simultaneously. Folded Flight Path (FFP ) technology, available exclusively from LECO,
provides the needed path length (up to 40 m) to achieve high performance resolution, along
with the stability to guarantee excellent mass accuracy.
! Folded Flight Path technology enables resolution of up to 50,000, mass accuracies
less than 1 ppm, and acquisition rates up to 200 spectra/second
! LECO's exclusive ChromaTOF-HRT® brand software utilizes
Automated Peak Find through High Resolution
Deconvolution™ (HRD™) for seamless data handling
! Chemical ionization (HR-CI) source option provides
unprecedented mass accuracy and resolution on
pseudomolecular ions
Pegasus GC-HRT 4D
LECO's most recent innovation in gas chromatography; the Pegasus GC-HRT 4D provides users
with the unprecedented ability to investigate complex samples and identify unknown analytes.
In your food samples you'll be able to find more analytes than ever before through our use of
High Resolution Deconvolution (HRD) and comprehensive GCxGC chromatography.
! Mass accuracies of 1 ppm and peak capacity potential at least two times greater than any
mass spectrometer currently available on the marketplace
! Chemical ionization source allows users to dramatically
change their high resolution GCMS information
! The industry’s most established GCxGC systems; thermal
modulation with liquid nitrogen or cryogen-free versions
! KADAS® ion statistics-based data acquisition system
reduces noise and ensures mass accuracy
