3100 Purge and Trap Sample Concentrator Features Tekmar Others ® Unmatched inertness with Silcosteel tubing and Silcosteel-treated fittings throughout the sample pathway. Performance benefits include corrosion resistance and reduced adsorption of active compounds. Sample path temperature uniformity—increased recovery and reduced condensation. Liquid sample drain system with large bore tubing and orifices for quick and reliable draining. Trap Pressure Control (TPC) increases recoveries and resolution, reduces peak tailing and distortion. Modular built-in Moisture Control System (MCS) ™ removes virtually all moisture without affecting polar analytes (5°C above ambient to 320°C range bakes out water between runs). Quick Trap Cooldown and Rapid trap heating. USEPA specified 12” traps are controlled from ambient to 420°C. • Direct Injection on top of trap for easy troubleshooting • Less trap replacement costs • Tenax® loses its adsorptivity when subjected to overshoot temperatures above recommended specification • Traps easily customized • Temperature uniformity and control along entire length of trap yield sharp peaks and increased reproducibility Optional TurboCool improves resolution and reproducibility of lighter gases by purging onto a cold trap (-20°C) that is at the same temperature for the entire purge cycle. Shorter chromatographic run times increases lab productivity. Standby gas flow keeps the sample pathway swept with inert gas. Flow Tuned Tubing (FTT) features constant uniform internal diameters on all fittings, valves, and tubing to eliminate dead volume and maintain constant linear velocity during desorption to the GC. Capable of interfacing to two 16 discrete position autosamplers for a total of 32 positions. AutoBake mode bakes out all discrete autosampler lines without starting the GC. Up to 16 methods stored including pre-programmed USEPA methods 502.2, 524.2, 601, 602, 624, 8000, CLP, Bakeout, AQUATek 50, and AEROTrap 6016. Up to 12 method changes in any sample order on a single automatic cycle of any Tekmar autosampler. Hand-held controller’s modular design aids in diagnostics. TekLink software. • Runs independently or integrated with Windows™ systems (i.e., Hewlett-Packard ChemStation, PE Nelson™, TurboChrom™, Varian Star GC Workstation™) with built-in DDE. • Capable of running four sample concentrators without additional hardware for the 3000. Saves bench space, only 9” wide. features_3100.doc; 5-Aug-03 Sales/Support: 800-874-2004 · Main: 513-229-7000 4736 Socialville Foster Rd., Mason, OH 45040 www.teledynetekmar.com
