DPS Instruments, Inc., (USA), manufacturer of the worldâs only modular gas chromatograph system, recently launched their new âCompanion GCâ at Pittcon 2008, that took place in New Orleans in March.
David Pierce, President of DPS Instruments, said, âThe all new Gas
Chromatograph Companion GC goes with you anywhere! The portable
Companion GC is housed in a small rugged plastic suitcase. Portability is the next logical extension of ourmodular product line and expands our capability fromlab based systems into the field.â Pierce added, âUnlike the competition, the Companion GC can be configured with one of our many detector types.
The mini- TCD (Thermo Conductivity Detector) can detect virtually every
compound. The PID (Photo Ionization Detector) is routinely used to detect aromatics compounds found in petroleumproducts.With the FID (Flame Ionization Detector) you can detect hydrocarbons and solvents.
The Companion GC is small and portable and yet has the same features and
sensitivity of DPSâ lab based Series 600 Modular GC Systems.
