Description
The Chemtron Gas GC Zero Air Generator utilizes compressed air that is prefiltered to 5 micron and then purified using a state of the art combined heated catalyst module.
The output zero air is free from total hydrocarbons to <0.1 ppm, making it ideal for all FID applications. This gas purity level (measured as methane) guarantees a low signal to noise ratio, ensuring a flat and stable GC baseline.
With no moving parts and silent operation, the generator is extremely reliable and ideal to be installed directly in the laboratory. With flow rates up to 30 L/min one system can support up to 75 FIDs. With short pay back time, minimal maintenance and operator attention they are an ideal addition to any GC laboratory.
INCREASE EFFICIENCY
A constant gas supply with a guaranteed purity,eliminates interruptions of analysis to change cylinders and reduces the amount of instrument re-calibrations required.
RETURN ON INVESTMENT
Payback period can be as short as 6 to 12 months.
IMPROVE SAFETY
Zero air produced at low pressure and ambient temperature, removes the need for high pressure cylinders.
ENHANCE PERFORMANCE
DETECTOR
The reduction of hydrocarbons, including methane to <0.1 ppm decreases the background noise level and gives the baseline much better stability, considerably increasing detector sensitivity and ensuring precise analytical results.
INSTRUMENT
Gas generator can be installed in the laboratory close to the instrument, eliminating the need for long gas lines from external cylinder
supplies. A constant guaranteed high purity gas supply improves stability and ensures greater reproducibility of results.
