## Description
To meet the increasing sensitivity demands of new analytical methods that ensure compliance 
with Environmental Quality Standards (EQS), the existing instrumentation requires upgrading to 
the Bruker VIP-HESI ion source together with two replacement PCs.
The current setup is no longer capable of supporting the precision required for monitoring WFD 
priority hazardous substances, as well as new and emerging chemical threats. In particular, the 
existing ion source lacks the sensitivity needed to detect these compounds at the low levels 
mandated by EQS.
The VIP-HESI ion source delivers significantly enhanced sensitivity, enabling more accurate 
quantification of trace-level contaminants. This upgrade will also prevent premature 
obsolescence of the remaining instrumentation and ensure the system remains fit for purpose.
