The TurboMatrix family of Thermal Desorbers reduces operating costs of analysis by offering a flexible, easy to use system that produces accurate, reproducible results for the full range of sample handling requirements. A graphical user interface with touchscreen provides easy access to information, including visual displays of the thermal desorbers' operation, the setpoints, and the current conditions of temperature and pressures.
For environmental analysis, product development, quality control, and troubleshooting out-of-specification products, the TurboMatrix Thermal Desorbers eliminate the need for manual sample preparation and can interface with different manufacturers' gas chromatographs.
The TurboMatrix Thermal Desorbers use a two-stage process to desorb analytes from the sample tube and refocus them onto a narrow-bore cold trap for direct transfer to the GC column.
The technology offers enhanced chromatography and narrower peak widths, due to a 40°C/second trap heating rate. Other advantages of this thermal desorption technique include a wider boiling range analysis and improved water management.
For increased efficiency, the TurboMatrix Thermal Desorbers allow direct desorption of the sample within the unit. Thus, no solvent is required for sample analysis. By avoiding dilution through solvent extraction, sampler sensitivity is improved by a factor of 1000.
The TurboMatrix TD family offers users flexibility with a built-in touchscreen that displays information in a number of different languages. Each unit is capable of interfacing with any gas chromatograph, regardless of the manufacturer.
Analysis-improving accessories, such as online air sampling, dry purging, or liquid nitrogen cold trap cooling, make for an easily upgradable system.
The TurboMatrix Thermal Desorption family includes a single sample system and an automated version accommodating up to 50 samples.
