Our dual filament TCD is a stand-alone unit consisting of the detector housing and a controller with electrometer and temperature controls. The detector cell includes two separate nickel/iron filaments, capable of independent or referenced (differential) operation. Cell volume and geometry are optimized for capillary chromatography and enhanced sensitivity at low flow rates. (Recommended total flow rate: 2-10 mL/min.)
Thermal stability is maintained to ±0.02°C, resulting in a stable, noise-free signal. A single 0-1 millivolt attenuated output for a strip chart recorder is provided through the signal cable at the rear of the controller, with 0-1 volt and 0-10 volt unattenuated signals available through the remote signal cable.
