ThePCBGCSystemhas everything youneed todetect PCBs in soil andother solidmatrices. TheThermal
Desorber permits the user to inject and analyze PCBs with very high sensitivity and little or no sample
preparation—no solvent extraction is required. Up to 1 gram of soil can be loaded into the reusable glass
desorption tubes. Formore informationon the Thermal Desorber, please seepage 64.
The FID detector responds to all
hydrocarbons, and the DELCD
identiies which are halogenated.
Due to the extreme selectivity of the
DELCD, PCBs can be discriminated
even in the presence of massive
hydrocarbon contamination. Because
the FID precombusts the sample, the
DELCD is protected from hydrocarbon
contamination.Thetwochromatograms
at right show the analysis of a 200ppm
Aroclor 1254 sample in diesel with a
PCBGCSystem.
The PCBGCSystem is also useful for detecting pesticides, PAHs, JP-4, kerosene, and diesel in soil. Soil
samples are typically 20-50%water, so the FID lame is automatically relit after a largewater peak. The 30
meter capillary column is included to eficiently separate hydrocarbons up toC40+. The built-in, “whisper
quiet” air compressor provides an ininite supply of combustion air for the FIDdetector.
