Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) like BTEX are emanated from broad range of sources and have direct influences on life q

The PID-Analyzer is a multi-gas analyzer as gas-chromatograph (GC) with a Photo Ionization Detector (PID) for the read-out able to identify compounds. It has a high sensitive detection and identification of Volatile Organic Compounds such as Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl benzene and Xylene (BTEX). For the monitoring of Total-VOC the PID-Analyzer can be set-up as bare PID. No carrier gas is required which results into low operation costs and makes it suitable for mobile use. As mobile device the PID-Analyzer it is the smallest and most sensitive GC-PID device on the market.

uality and health. But also other compounds such as Ethylene oxide used in medical or pharmaceutical applications, light weight hydrocarbons such as Hexane in the petrochemie or solvents in the semiconductor production are of interest. In principal all compounds which can be ionized with an UV lamp (standard 10.6 eV UV lamp) can be measured with the PID-Analyzer.

A high sensitive multi-gas GC-PID analyzer

The PID-Analyzer is a multi-gas trace analyzer for the detection and identification of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in the ppb-range wi thout any pre-concentration.It is a Photo Ionization Detector (PID) coupled with a gas chromatographic column (GC-column) for pre-separation.

The PID-Analyzer does not show any interference (quenching) from humidity and offers manual and automatic analysis.With this detector combination the disadvantage of conventional PIDs is overcome and therefore allows the identification of compounds. This is quite important for the risk assessment because only with identi f ication a related concentration can be measured. It is especially important for gas mixtures which can be disentangled by the GC-PID.

The PID-cell used in this system is a special designed PID with sensitivity in the ppb-range. Since no carrier gas is required the operational costs of the PID-Analyzer (GC-PID) are low. As mobile version the PID-Analyzer can be set-up as an autarkic and mobile working analyzer but can also be connected to an external computer via interface.

EX-protection (purge system) is available.

Calibration functions with an additional calibrator for SPAN/ZERO calibration is offered as well as Multi-Point-Sample (MPS) systems, dilution- or even gas probe chiller systems.
