Why compromise between performance and price when you can have both?

With Thermo Scientific factory-certified, pre-owned mass spectrometers, you can access legendary LC-MS technology—trusted around the world—at a fraction of the cost of buying new. Our refurb program delivers the quality, precision, and reliability you expect from Thermo Fisher Scientific, while helping you stay within budget and on top of your analytical goals.

Factory-Certified for confidence

Every certified pre-owned system goes through a rigorous factory reconditioning process. From updated hardware and software to comprehensive performance testing, each instrument is restored to meet the same high standards as our new products.

What’s included?

When you choose a certified LC-MS system, you get more than just an instrument—you get the complete Thermo Scientific experience:

  • Full 1-year factory warranty for peace of mind
  • 29-point inspection checklist, re-certification, and final quality testing
  • Software and hardware updates to current revisions
  • Re-certification using only genuine Thermo Scientific factory parts
  • Professional installation by Unity Lab Services field engineers
  • Optional training and application support to get you up and running fast

What gets replaced?

Our reconditioning process is comprehensive. These critical components are replaced on every system:

  • All hoses
  • Probes
  • Ion sources
  • Ion transfer tube
  • Multiplier
  • Mechanical pumps
  • Acquisition PC and software
  • PCBs (when required for revision)

Maximize uptime with expert support

Behind every certified system is a global team of Thermo Fisher specialists committed to helping your lab succeed. Support doesn’t stop after installation:

  • Flexible service contract options through Unity Lab Services
  • Guaranteed response times for select contracts
  • Financing solutions to meet your budget
  • System qualifications and validations
  • Technology refresh solutions to keep you ahead of the curve

A smarter, more sustainable choice

Investing in a factory-certified pre-owned system isn’t just cost-effective—it’s a sustainable solution that extends the life of high-performance equipment and reduces waste. You get the data quality and instrument reliability your work depends on, while making an environmentally conscious choice.

More ways to access Thermo Scientific excellence—affordably

We understand that every lab’s financial situation is different. That’s why Thermo Fisher offers multiple paths to help you acquire the right mass spectrometry solution, when you need it.

1. Factory-certified refurbished systems

Already covered above, this option gives you fully reconditioned, factory-tested LC-MS instruments at a lower price point—without compromising performance or support.

View our brochure for a comprehensive overview.

2. Trade-in and trade-up: Turn your old into increased productivity

Already own a system—Thermo Fisher or otherwise? Trade it in and upgrade to a newer model with greater capabilities and sensitivity.

How it works:

  • Receive a discount on your next system based on the residual value of your current instrument
  • Avoid the hassle of selling or decommissioning your old system
  • Transition with minimal downtime and disruption

Why labs choose this path:

  • Keeps productivity high while moving to new technology
  • Eases the financial burden of upgrading
  • Helps labs stay competitive with improved system performance

3. Personalized equipment financing & leasing options

If upfront capital is limited, our tailored financing and leasing plans offer flexibility that aligns with your lab’s budget and growth plans.
