Typical Chromatogram

Key Features and Benefits
- Gas chromatograph can be configured to contain additional applications.
- Cryogenic cooling may be used to separate carbonyl sulfide and sulfur dioxide.
- Fused silica lined tubing ensures repeatability and the lowest detection limits.
- PFPD provides proportional response allowing uncalibrated peaks to be quantified using response factors from known peaks of similar structure.
