Product catalog summary
Overview: The GERSTEL Olfactory Detector Port (ODP 2) is an advanced tool for simultaneous detection of compounds using both human olfactory senses and a mass spectrometer. It is designed for use in gas chromatography to enhance the analysis of fragrances, flavors, and other chemical compounds.
Key Features:
  • Simultaneous Detection: The ODP 2 allows for the simultaneous detection of compounds by the human nose and up to two other detectors, such as mass spectrometers, using a precision-engineered crosspiece that ensures zero dead volume and leak-free operation.
  • Ergonomic Design: Features a flexible, heated, height-adjustable transfer line with a replaceable nose cone and humidification system for analyst comfort during long analyses.
  • Software Integration: The GERSTEL ODP Recorder Software integrates with Agilent GC or MS ChemStation, allowing for the superimposition of olfactograms with chromatograms for component identification.
  • Olfactory Pad: The GERSTEL Olfactory Pad enables recording of olfactory events with four buttons corresponding to different odor intensity levels, connected via USB.
  • Voice Recording: Utilizes Dragon NaturallySpeaking software for voice-to-text conversion, storing comments as .WAV files for later processing and replay.
Applications: The ODP 2 is suitable for research and problem-solving in various fields, including fragrances, flavors, food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, plastics, packaging, consumer products, environmental analysis, chemicals, and waste disposal management.
System Requirements:
  • Compatible with Agilent GC ChemStation Version A08.XX and MS ChemStation G 1701 DA.
  • Requires an Intel® Pentium® / 1 GHz processor, minimum 512 MB RAM, 1 GB free hard disk space, and Microsoft® Windows® XP (SP1 or higher) or 2000 (SP4 or higher).
  • Sound card supporting 16-bit recording, such as Creative® Labs Sound Blaster® 16.
Advantages:
  • Provides maximum comfort during long analyses.
  • Allows for comprehensive data recording, including chromatograms, olfactograms, voice comments, and olfactory event times in a single file.
  • Simple operation with voice commands and a four-button interface.

Olfactory Detection Port ODP -3

1. GERSTEL ODP Recorder Software The GERSTEL ODP Recorder Software is completely integrated into the Agilent GC or MS ChemStation. It permits identification of components by superimposing the olfactogram with the GC or MS chromatograms. 2. GERSTEL Olfactory Pad - OP The GERSTEL Olfactory Pad allows the analyst to record an "olfactory event" by simply pressing one of 4 buttons. Each button corresponds to a different odor intensity level. The resulting "olfactogram" with voice comments are associated with and saved in the same file as the GC or MS chromatogram. The olfactory pad is connected via...
