TD100-xr is a fully-automated analytical thermal desorption instrument that combines with any GC(MS) for the automated detection of volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds (VOCs and SVOCs) in air, materials or liquids.
TD100-xr is useful for chemists who work with VOCs and SVOCs where high sample throughput is demanded. With capacity for up to 100 sorbent tubes, TD-100 is particularly well-suited to the unattended analysis of large numbers of samples quality control.
Sample security is ensured by the use of patented diffusion-locking technology, while operating costs are lowered (and instrument uptime is maximised) by the use of electrical cooling, which eliminates the need for liquid cryogen. TD-100 ensures peace of mind to the user by offering sample re-collection, which, as well as overcoming the ‘one-shot’ limitation of older TD systems, allows it to comply with international standard methods. Labour-saving options are also available to accommodate the addition of internal standards and for the dry-purging of particularly humid samples.
It also incorporates Multi-Gas technologies enabling the instrument to be run with either hydrogen, helium or nitrogen carrier gases.
