Abstract
A mass spectrometry system includes an ion-optics and a housing for the ion-optics. A panel is movable between an open and closed position relative to the housing. A first section of the ion-optics is within the housing, while a second section of the ion-optics is mounted to the panel. The ion-optics is surrounded by the housing and the panel when the panel is in the closed position. An alignment mechanism aligns the first and second sections of the ion-optics into a pre-determined alignment upon closing the panel.
