GERSTEL Tube Conditioner (TC 2)

GERSTEL Tube Conditioner (TC 2)

The Tube Conditioner (TC 2) enables simultaneous conditioning of up to 10 TDS tubes or up to 50 GERSTEL Twisters.

Clean and well-conditioned TD tubes and Twister are essential in order to fully take advantage of the high sensitivity of the thermal desorption technique and to achieve the best possible quality of analysis. The TC 2 operates independetly of the GC/MS system, eliminating the risk of system contamination during conditioning and keeping the GC/MS available for analytical tasks ensuring maximum productivity.

Pyrolysis Module (PM 1)

Pyrolysis Module (PM 1)

The GERSTEL Pyrolysis Module (PM 1) is an accessory for the Thermal Desorption System (TDS). The PM 1 enables heating of samples beyond the normal thermal desorption temperature limit of 400C to a final temperature between 500 and 1000C. Applications include the determination of thermal decomposition prodcuts from – and thereby the structure of – samples like paint, polymers, adhesives, plastics and packaging materials.

TDS-A Autosampler for TDS

TDS-A Autosampler for TDS

Adding the TDS A Autosampler enables your Thermal Desorption System (TDS) to perform completely automated processing of up to 20 samples using one or more analysis methods.

The TDS-A performs:
  • Desorption of glass or stainless steel tubes
  • Automated desorption of 178 mm and 3.5″ thermal desorption tubes
  • Leak tight storage in exchangeable magazines
  • Efficient MAESTRO Software control – stand-alone or fully integrated with the Agilent Technologies ChemStation

Thermal Desorption System (TDS)

Thermal Desorption System (TDS)

The GERSTEL Thermal Desorption System (TDS) is a flexible multi-functional system for highly sensitive determination of volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds (VOCs and SVOCs) that have been trapped on adsorbent tubes or on GERSTEL Twisters.

The TDS is also frequently used for direct thermal extraction and determination of VOCs and SVOCs from solids without sample preparation. Application examples are natural products, flavor and fragance, emssions from materials that are used indoors in buildings or in automobiles, semiconductors, polymers and packaging.

Thermal Extractor (TE)

Thermal Extractor (TE)

The TE is a preparation system for bulk samples to be analyzed using the Thermal Desorption System TDS.

A solid or gel sample is placed into the TE tube and is heated to the desired temperature. Compounds of interest are transferred into the TDS desorbent tube with a carrier gas flow. The compounds are the determined using the Thermal Desorption System (TDS).

Tube Standard Preparation System (TSPS)

Tube Standard Preparation System (TSPS)

The GERSTEL TSPS is designed for the preparation of solvent-free thermal desorption standards for use in air and industrial hygiene analysis.

TSPS provides an excellent alternative to commonly used ‘one-at-a-time’ classic methods. The TSPS is simple in design, speeds up routine laboratory procedures and can be easily used by staff with any level of technical training.

The TSPS can be equipped with up to six GERSTEL thermal desorption tubes that are easily attached using a specially designed connection system.
