GC Detector Overview (16 types)
44
  • Up to 6 detectors can be installed on one GC
  • Several detectors can be run in series for multiple chromatograms from one injection
This particular 8610C GC system is equipped with ECD, FID, FPD, PID, and DELCD detectors. All five detectors may be operated and the results viewed simultaneously with our six channel USB PeakSimple data system.
 

SEVENTEEN DETECTOR TYPES TO CHOOSE FROM

Each detector is equipped with a thermostatted heater block for temperature stability, internal amplifier electronics, and electronic pressure controlled (EPC) support gases, such as hydrogen and air for the FID detector. All detectors require factory installation. Prices listed are for the detector mounted on an SRI GC chassis.
