ABB PGC5000 Temperature programmed gas chromatograph Introduction

Introduction

Specialty analysis for separation of wide boiling range

compounds. The PGC5000 Temperature Programmed (TP)

Gas Chromatograph uses component separation to analyze

gas or liquid samples. The analyzer operates unattended,

automatically sampling and analyzing process streams.

Description

An isothermal oven contains the temperature programmed

oven assembly with a detector, either a Flame Ionization

Detector (FID) or Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD). The

detector is mounted on top of the temperature programmed

oven, and it is integrated with the TP oven in order to provide

an optimal analytical flow path and eliminate potential cold

spots. The sample valves, either a Liquid Sample Valve (LSV)

or a Continuous Performance (CP) valve, can also be installed

in the isothermal oven compartment. An optional air

cleanup / methanizer unit may be used. Special columns

(capillary or packed type) are installed inside the temperature

programmed oven. The columns contain special packing

material which separates the compounds to be analyzed so

that they enter the detector in a predictable sequence.
