Typical Chromatogram
Key Features and Benefits
- Can be configured with an additional GC by heated umbilical for simultaneous analysis of hydrogen sulfide, carbonyl sulfide, ammonia cyanide, and hydrogen cyanide.
- Cryogenic cooling may be used to separate argon and oxygen.
- The backflush peak can be tailored to specific samples (e.g. C6+ or C8+ backflush composite peaks).
- Separate sampling loops eliminate cross contamination.
- Can be configured with an injector oven for on-line analysis.
- Fast analysis with hydrocarbon analysis through 1,3-butadiene is complete in under 10 minutes.
- Detailed analysis with hydrocarbon analysis through n-eicosane is complete in approximately 30 minutes.
