The SCION 456-GC provides industry-leading flexibility by supporting max 3 injectors and 4 detectors, including the mass spectrometer, providing our users a rapid time-to-benefit advantage.
TCD
The thermal conductivity detector (TCD), also known as a Katharometer, is a bulk property detector and a chemical specific detector commonly used in gas chromatography. This detector senses changes in the thermal conductivity of the column effluent and compares it to a reference flow of carrier gas.
ECD
The Electron Capture Detector (ECD) is selective to electronegative compounds,especially chlorinated, fluorinated, or brominated molecules. It is sensitive to some of these compounds in the parts per trillion (ppt)range. The ECD detector requires nitrogen or argon / 5% methane (P5) to operate. The ECD detector is mounted immediately adjacent to the right rear column oven wall on your SRI GC chassis. Two BNC cables connect the anode and cathode,respectively, to the ECD amplifier. The ECD detector consists of a stainless steel cylinder containing 5 millicuries of radioactive Nickel 63 in an oven enclosure that is thermostatically controllable from ambient temperature to 37C
This Bruker SCION 456-GC with TCD and ECD detectors is in a great shape. It has been tested at SpectraLab Scientific.
A 90 day warranty is included.
