Downloads
Abstract:
The accurate, efficient, and flexible analysis of gas samples is critical in a wide range of scientific and industrial fields. The MobilGC 2 offers a robust platform for on-site, process-integrated, and laboratory-based gas chromatography, ensuring high precision and operational flexibility across diverse analytical environments.
Introduction:
Modern analytical challenges demand mobile, adaptable instrumentation capable of delivering laboratory-quality results in various settings.
The MobilGC 2 addresses this need with a fully integrated gas chromatograph that combines ease of use, powerful detection capabilities, and exceptional portability.
System Overview:
The MobilGC 2 is equipped with two high-performance detectors: a Flame Ionization Detector (FID) and a Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD/WLD). This dual-detection setup enables the simultaneous quantification of a wide range of volatile organic and inorganic compounds.
The system accommodates:
- Standard capillary columns for high-resolution separations
- Packed and micro-packed columns for specialized applications
Each column is individually temperature-controlled with programmable heating profiles, optimizing separations according to specific sample matrices and analysis targets.
Sample introduction can be carried out either manually or automatically via an integrated suction pump feeding into a sample loop, ensuring flexible operation in field and laboratory conditions.
Measurement and Data Evaluation:
The MobilGC 2 is controlled via an intuitive software interface that facilitates:
- Rapid configuration of analytical methods
- Real-time data acquisition and visualization
- Comprehensive chromatogram evaluation
- Automated quantitative and qualitative data analysis
In addition to manual single-sample analyses, the system supports fully automated online measurements, enabling continuous process monitoring and real-time decision-making.
Applications:
The MobilGC 2 is particularly suited for:
- Environmental gas monitoring
- Biogas and process gas analysis
- Quality control in industrial production
- Research applications in chemical and energy sectors
The integrated gas supply and rugged design make it ideal for deployment in remote or challenging environments, where traditional laboratory instruments would be impractical.
Conclusion:
The MobilGC 2 delivers high-precision gas chromatographic analysis with the flexibility required for modern, dynamic analytical applications. Its combination of portability, dual detection capabilities, and automated operation makes it an indispensable tool for field, process, and laboratory-based gas analysis.
