Automation: Fraction Collector (GC)
|
The GERSTEL PFC automatically collects compounds after gas chromatographic separation. The PFC is equipped with six sample traps and one waste trap. Traps are available in 1 µl or 100 µl volumes.
For optimum compound recovery, the PFC can be equipped with optional LN2 or cryostatic trap cooling systems.
The GERSTEL PFC allows for the collection of individual compounds, a series of compounds, or specific classes of compounds. Thanks to microprocessor control, trap switching times can be selected to within 0.01 minutes. This permits reliable collection of individual compounds that are closely resolved.
The equipment is designed so that there are no valves or cold spots in the sample flow path to ensure maximum transfer efficiency.
The reliability and reproducibility of the system makes it possible to trap compounds over the course of hundreds of injections. This makes it possible to further analyse the fractions by techniques requiring larger sample mass such as NMR or IR.
The system can be controlled by means of a hand-held GERSTEL-MAS Controller 505 keypad and/or GERSTEL-MASter software.
The GERSTEL PFC can be used with all common gas chromatographs.
