Abstract: The article describes a miniature mass spectrometer made at the Wroclaw University of Science and Technology in cooperation with Creotech Instruments for of the European Space Agency. It was manufactured by the use of MEMS technology (micro-electro-mechanical systems) combined with precise 3D printing. It is one of the smallest gas composition analyzers (the measuring head is 2×2×10 cm 3 and weighs only 120 grams) that can be used in space applications. Its operating parameters are not much worse than for the classic, much larger counterparts (resolution reaches 100 and mass range up to 400 AMU). Keywords: Mass spectrometry; MEMS technology; Gas composition analysis
