Custom Built-in Accessories Air Concentrator
 |
The built-in air concentrator in the Companion 2 Portable GC provide both
a compact portable sample concentrator and a shortest possible sample path.
Heated valve and sample lines create an inert sample path.
The sample trap is plumbed in a true back-flush fashion.
We can also equip the sample trap with a variety of packing materials.
This offers the chance to achieve the best concentration of the compounds
you want to analyze.
A built-in vacuum pump loads the sample and a variable flow controller provides
consistent sample trapping.
The Time-line of the DPS Control Software automates the entire sequence of
the Air Sample Concentrator for the analysis of one sample.
Or the system can be set up to run unattended 24/7, collecting and analyzing samples
every hour, or so.
Load€ - The vacuum pump draws the sample from the inlet through the Trap
and then to the flow controller and pump to limit any possible cross contamination
between samples.
Inject€ - The carrier gas sweeps the components from the trap to the analytical column

Headspace Concentrator
The built-in DPS Headspace Concentrator in the Companion 2 Portable GC provides the shortest possible sample path.
The Sample Vial is heated and then consistently Pressurized before loading the Sample Loop. A fixed Sample Loop ensures reproducible sampling.
Sample lines are Flushed between analyses to limit any cross over contamination. The Time-line of the DPS Control Software automates the entire sequence of the Headspace Concentrator for the analysis of one sample at a time.
Automated Time-line - In the 1st sequence the carrier gas is diverted to Flush out the Sample Lines.
The Sample Probe is then inserted into the Head-space Vial. During the 2nd step the carrier gas flows to the analytical column.
The Vial Heater heats the Head-space Vial and allows it to equilibrate.
During the 3rd step the Head-space Vial is pressurized for a few seconds.
In the 4th step the sample is loaded onto the Sample Loop by releasing the pressure in the head-space vial.
In the 5th step the Sample Valve rotates to the ON position and the carrier gas sweeps the components from the Sample Loop onto the analytical column.

Purge & Trap Concentrator
The built-in Purge & Trap Concentrator in the Companion 2 Portable GC
has the same Trap features as the Air Concentrator.
The water sample is purged
with inert gas to extract the sample compounds and load them onto the Trap.
A variable flow controller regulates the Purge Gas for consistent sample trapping. The Time-line of the DPS Control Software automates the entire sequence of
the Purge & Trap Concentrator for the analysis of one sample at a time.
Load - The Purge Valve turns ON to start the stream of gas flowing to the Purge Vial. With this configuration the flow controller is up stream from the Trap to limit any possible cross contamination between samples.
Inject -The carrier gas sweeps the components from the trap to the analytical column. With the Purge Valve OFF there is no flow through the other side of
the valve. The Purge Valve can be turned ON to blow out the sample lines using
a blank Vial.

Fluidless Column Oven (FCO) for Companion 2 Portable GC
In the Standard FCO model a series of Inlet and Outlet heaters place
a steady state temperature profile right on the analytical column.
The analytical column is connected to the GC injection port as usual.
The injected sample passes into the Inlet half of the Analytical Column.
Because of the negative gradient profile the peaks sharpen as they travel through the column.
The peaks sharpen naturally, because the front of the peak is always a
little cooler than the back of the peak.
The Outlet half of the column also has a negative gradient profile.
So it sharpens the peaks further, before they pass to the detector.
The Inlet and Outlet temperature profiles are set independently.
You can easily adjust the profiles to analyze many classes of compounds
