HT 300A - Key Features • Replacement sampler- any major manufactured GC • Extremely Rugged • Rotating Turret Design • No picking up of the vial • Handles Front and Back Injectors • Small footprint • Economical - $8,500 • Accurate – Reproducibility Typically .3% • Very Easy to use • Nice Looking (Italian) • Control Software Available including Agilent Chemstation
Headspace • Europeans to date have a higher level of proficiency due to experience • More Widely Used • More Widely Accepted • Blood Alcohol • Residual Solvents • Environmental • R&D
Advantages of Headspace in the Environmental Laboratory • Pre-screening for VOC’s – Aqueous and Solids • EPA 8260 Aqueous and Solids • Methods 624 Waste Water, 524 Drinking Water • Why Gamble on Sample Throughput? • Protecting a Lucrative Revenue Stream • Decrease Downtime From Contamination • Protect your MS System and Sustain Productivity by Pre-screening
HT200H Headspace Sampler Key Features • Cost effective ($17,900) • Inexpensive to Operate • Small Footprint • Rotating Turret • Front and Back Injectors - Run Multiple Methods • Direct Injection – No Transfer Line • Leaves Inlet Intact • No Carryover • Very Short Runtime (under 10 min. Including Naphthalene)
HT250D Dual Autosampler • Headspace and Liquid Autosampler in one unit • All the features of HT200H plus features of HT300A • Easy to change from one mode to the other • All included – no optional extras • Maximizes the throughput on individual GC’s • Small Footprint • Most Economical Dual Unit on the Market
EPA Method 8260 Pre-screening • Volatiles partition into vial headspace • 1ml gas-tight syringe injection • GC/FID System • Use reduced compound list or reference calibration (aromatic and chlorinateds) • Dilute appropriately and run by P&T/GC/MS
Method RSK 175 • An umbrella EPA Method for permanent gas analysis • USEPA Region 1 application notes applied to MNA • Standards readily available from Scott & Restek • Analyze Methane/Ethane/Ethene to 2ug/L • Remember Methane is a Reportable Compound in MA
CCME Method 1310 • Canadian Petroleum Hydrocarbon Method for VPH/GRO • Performance based method allows for Headspace Preparation to reduce carryover contamination • PBM Criteria require strict alkane/ aromatic ratios • Pre-screen UST Samples – no reruns for baseline resolution issues
Business Opportunities with Headspace • CCME 1310 • Materials Testing • USP 467 Residual Solvents • Raw Materials from China • VOA’s (Raw production Material that cannot be prepared by P&T)
