Options for Expanding Your Productivity
Simultaneously Control Up to Three Injection Units and Four Detectors
Up to four types of injection units or six types of detectors can be selected depending on the purpose of analysis and target components. Four detectors can be controlled simultaneously using LabSolutions.
Note: The number of detectors installed depends on the type. The injection port can control up to two devices simultaneously.Inlets

Barrier Discharge Ionization Detector (BID)
|
The barrier discharge ionization detector (BID-2030) is a universal detector that offers high-sensitivity analysis by using a low-frequency dielectric barrier discharge plasma for ionization. The BID generates helium (He) plasma by applying a high voltage to a quartz glass tube. The light energy from the He plasma then ionizes the target components and the ions are collected and output as peaks using a collection electrode. A wide variety of compounds other than He and neon (Ne) are detected with high sensitivity. |
---|---|
Flame Ionization Detector (FID) | The jet and collector structure on the flame ionization detector (FID-2030) has been optimized to provide improved performance. Noise levels were also decreased by improving the stability of the signal processor and flow controller. This results in the world’s most sensitive FID*. |
Sulfur Chemiluminescence Detector (SCD) | SCDs are the most sensitive GC detectors for measuring sulfur components. The Nexis SCD-2030 is equipped with an ultra-short flow path and high efficiency redox cell, so it provides the world’s highest level* of sensitivity and stability. In addition, detector startup is automated, easing the burden on operators. |

The Jetanizer is the easiest and most robust methanizer. A methanizer is a chemical reactor that converts carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide to methane to enable sensitive detection by a flame ionization detector (FID) from
-
The Polyarc system has a catalytic microreactor that enhances new and existing gas chromatographs (GCs) with flame ionization detectors (FIDs) by converting all organic compounds to methane molecules prior to their detection by the FID, therefore converting the FID into a truly universal carbon detector.
