# Council Regulation (EC) No 428/2009 of 5 May 2009 setting up a Community regime for the control of exports, transfer, brokering and transit of dual-use items (Recast), Division [3A233]: Mass spectrometers, other than those specified in 0B002.g., capable of measuring ions of 230 u or greater and having a resolution of better than 2 parts in 230, as follows, and ion sources therefor:

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

a..Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometers (ICP/MS);
b..Glow discharge mass spectrometers (GDMS);
c..Thermal ionization mass spectrometers (TIMS);
d..Electron bombardment mass spectrometers having both of the following features:
1..A molecular beam inlet system that injects a collimated beam of analyte molecules into a region of the ion source where the molecules are ionized by an electron beam; and
2..One or more ‘cold traps’ that can be cooled to a temperature of 193 K (– 80 °C);
e..Not used;
f..Mass spectrometers equipped with a microfluorination ion source designed for actinides or actinide fluorides.
Technical Notes:
1.
Electron bombardment mass spectrometers in 3A233.d. are also known as electron impact mass spectrometers or electron ionization mass spectrometers.
2.
In 3A233.d.2., a ‘cold trap’ is a device that traps gas molecules by condensing or freezing them on cold surfaces. For the purposes of 3A233.d.2., a closed-loop gaseous helium cryogenic vacuum pump is not a ‘cold trap’.
