ASDDetector
October 2013
The column is inserted into theASD
inlet and securedwith a graphite fer-
rule. The design allows the column to
be inserted all theway through the
tubing and into the flow cell if desired.
TheASD outlet is connected to the
FID via a short section of 1/16’ stain-
less tubing.
Since theASD ( which in this case is
connected toChannel 2 on the data
system ) is an absorbance type de-
tector, where the target molecule ab-
sorbs theUV light, the transmittance
signal must be converted to absorb-
ance units by clicking the box in the
Channel 2Details screen.
