The API source interface for all the TSQ Series II mass spectrometers includes an MP00 multipole and the L0 lens.

The MP00 multipole is an array of eight metal elements. The MS applies an RF voltage to the elements to generate an electric field that guides the ions along the axis of the multipole.

The L0 lens is a metal disk with a small hole in the center through which the ion beam passes. The MS applies an electrical potential (negative for positive ions and positive for negative ions) to the L0 lens to transmit ions of the selected charge. The L0 lens acts as a baffle between the MP00 and MP0 to isolate the lower vacuum region.
