SRI model 8610C Gas Chromatograph
The Model 8610C Gas Chromatograph is our most popular model. While it is very compact compared to comparable laboratory GCs from other manufacturers, it is large enough and flexible enough to perform an amazing variety of applications. Up to 4 detectors, from a choice of 14, can be mounted simultaneously. Up to 5 injector types, from a choice of 15, can be installed at the same time. The 8610C can control up to 16 heated zones, 3 gas sampling valves,and 7 EPC gas pressures. Virtually any EPA or ASTM method can be implemented on the 8610C chassis, while still remaining small enough to ship as airline baggage or FedEx. The 8610C column oven is temperature programmable from ambient to 400°C with unlimited ramps and holds and fast cool-down. While smaller than full-sized lab GCs, the column oven still holds a standard 7 inch diameter megabore column cage, or multiple columns with smaller coil sizes. All gases, carrier and detector, are controlled by electronic pressure regulators ( EPC ) for maximum precision, and the carrier gas pressure is programmable. The PeakSimple data system is built in for easy serial port connection to your notebook or desktop PC.
SRI has pre-configured a number of GCs for popular applications. In some cases, the pre-configured GCs are less expensive than the identical hardware assembled "a la carte". The following pages describe a number of GCs which have been configured for:
1) Capillary FID GC ( the basic general purpose GC )
2) Breath Analyzer GC ( for medical research and diagnosis )
3) BTEX and Environmental GC ( does most EPA series 8000 methods )
4) TO-14 GC ( for EPA air monitoring methods )
5) BTU Gas Analyzer GC ( for BTU content of natural gas )
6) Multiple Gas Analyzer #1 GC ( for fixed gases and light hydrocarbons )
7) Multiple Gas #1 + Sulfur Gas GC ( for H2S, SO2, fixed gases and C1-C20 hydrocarbons )
8) Multiple Gas Analyzer #2 GC ( for fixed gases and hydrocarbons to C20 )
9) Mud-logging GC ( for total hydrocarbons plus detailed C1-C6 content )
10) Method 25 ( methane/non-methane hydrocarbons )
11) Sulfur GC ( low level sulfur gases )
12) Explosives GC ( nitro-aromatic and nitramine explosives in the field )
13) Educational TCD GC ( for general academic uses )
14) Educational FID GC ( for advanced academic uses )
15) Gas-less™ Educational GC ( for academic situations where no gas is available )
NOTE: Most of the above GC configurations can be operated without gas if the optional Hydrogen Generator is installed
