DPS InstrumentsModel Companion 1 -Portable Gas Chromatography System

SHARE
The Companion 1 Portable GC by DPS Instruments is engineered to offer flexible and reliable gas chromatography solutions for field applications. Its modular design includes built-in accessories and allows for various standard application configurations, making it a versatile tool in analytical chemistry. The system features a compact oven that can handle temperatures from ambient up to 325°C with a rapid cooldown rate, which enhances analytical efficiency. It accommodates different detectors such as FID, NPD, PID, and TID, offering fine control with a resolution of 0.1°C for temperature and 0.1 kPa for pressure. The unit is equipped with advanced digital signal processing and electronic pressure controls, ensuring precise operation. Its compact nature and water-tight carrying case make it highly portable, weighing approximately 10 kg, which is ideal for on-the-go analysis. Additionally, integrated concentrators like the Air, Headspace, and Purge & Trap Concentrators improve sample handling and accuracy by minimizing sample path length and contamination.
