Mass spectrometer
A mass spectrometer device comprising an ion mobility separation device and a mass spectrometer that are coupled together. In order to achieve high efficiency, high throughput, and high sensitivity, the mass spectrometer is provided with: a first flow passageway 24 through which ions from an ion source 1 are introduced into the mass spectrometer 11 by passing through an ion mobility separation unit 2; a second flow passageway 21 through which the ions from the ion source are introduced into the mass spectrometer without passing through the ion mobility separation unit; and a switch means, such as shield units 4, 5, for switching between the first flow passageway 24 and the second flow passageway 21.
