Elevate lab productivity at a lower cost

With the Trade-In program, you can turn your existing LC-MS, HPLC system, or Orbitrap mass analyzer—regardless of brand—into savings toward a newer, more powerful instrument. We’ll evaluate your current system’s residual value and apply it directly to your upgrade, helping you offset the cost while avoiding the hassle of selling, shipping, or decommissioning the old instrument yourself.

Why Trade-In?

Upgrading through the Trade-In program means more than saving money—it’s about gaining lab efficiency, performance, and peace of mind.

Benefits of Trading In:

  • Access high-performing Thermo Scientific mass spectrometers
  • Increase throughput, sensitivity, and data quality
  • Reduce total cost of ownership through improved reliability
  • Streamline the upgrade with free instrument removal
  • Simplify the process—no third-party brokers or middlemen

Explore our full range of MS instrumentation

When you’re ready to upgrade, Thermo Scientific offers an extensive portfolio of cutting-edge LC-MS systems built to support high-throughput labs, complex workflows, and evolving analytical challenges.

  • Orbitrap Astral MS
    Ultra-sensitive, high-throughput mass spectrometry for Omics and BioPharma applications
  • Orbitrap Tribrid MS
    Measure low-abundance molecules and characterize structural isomers and native complexes
  • Orbitrap Exploris MS
    High-performance mass spectrometry with streamlined workflows and broad dynamic range
  • Stellar MS
    Robust quantitation and rapid full-scan MSn for improved productivity
  • TSQ Plus Triple Quadrupole MS
    Fast, reliable, and precise targeted quantitation for all molecule types
  • Q Exactive Plus MS
    Versatile solution for discovery and quantitation workflows, all in one instrument

Take the next step toward modernizing your lab

Whether you’re working in pharma, biotech, academic research, or clinical research, modern LC-MS platforms deliver the sensitivity, resolution, and throughput required for today’s most demanding applications.

And with the Trade-In program, you don’t have to delay progress due to cost.

Looking for other affordable options?

If a trade-in isn’t the right fit for your current needs, explore these additional affordability programs:

Access factory-certified, reconditioned LC-MS systems at a fraction of the cost—fully tested and ready to deliver high-quality data.

Flexible payment plans, leasing options, and deferred payments designed to meet your financial and operational needs.

Upgrade now, pay less, get more

It’s never been easier to transition your lab to next-gen mass spectrometry.
Trade in your current system—Thermo Fisher Scientific or otherwise—and gain access to our latest technology, expert support, and proven reliability, all while staying within budget.
