Our Core Strengths

  • Supporting simultaneous installation:
    a.Two injection ports
    b.Four detectors
    c.Three detector signals
  • Electronic digitized data output of the advanced detector, enabling quantitative analysis of peaks over the full range of the detector in a single injection
  • Electronic flow control for all injection ports, detectors, and auxiliary gas flow circuits
  • Possible for up to 6 electronic flow control modules to be installed, to provide control over up to 18 gas circuits. Accuracy of pressure setpoint and control approaching 0.001 psi, providing more accurate retention time for low pressure analyses.
