Our PCB GC system has everything you need to detect PCBs in soil and other solid matrices. The Thermal Desorber
permits the user to inject and analyze PCBs with very high sensitivity and liitle or no sample preparation

no solvent
extraction is required. Up to 1 gram of soil can be loaded into each re-usable glass desorption tube. For more information

The
detector responds to all hydrocarbons, and the
indentifies 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 pre-combusts the sample, the DELCD is protected from hydrocarbon contamination.
The PCB GC system is also useful for detecting pesticides, PAHs, JP-4, kerosene, and diesel in soil. Soil samples
are typically 20-50% water, so the FID flame is autmatically relit after a large water peak. The 30-meter capillary column
is included to efficiently separate hydrocarbons up to C
40
+. The built-in, "whisper-quiet"
provides an
infinite supply of combustion air for the
and if the GC is used with the H2-50XR hydrogen generator,
no gas cylinders are required.
