Varian CP-3800 GC
sample introduction: 1079 splitless and 1177 split-splitless injectors, combipal autosampler
analyses of polar and non-polar analytes
sub-ambient temperature, cryogenic GC for analyses of very volatile cmpds
sampling of, for example, O2 content in sludge or O2 solubility in fluoroalkane
headspace analyses - for determination of air-water partitioning, liquid vapour pressures
headspace prepartion station with agitation and heat
large range of working temperatures
Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) – for determination of KOW, KOA, KAW, vapour pressures
Chromatoprobe – for determination of Kair-solid , KOA
allows direct injection of sludge or other “dirty” samples into the device and measure of degassing of volatiles directly at variable temperatures
ECD and MS detection
