Series 4060 Overview The Teledyne Analytical Instruments (TAI) Series 4060 speciates gases of interest by combining well-accepted gas chromatography techniques with TAI's f ield-proven detector technologies. This combination, along with effective electrometer-based signal amplification and temperature control, enables the Series 4060 to detect either single or multiple compounds in a background gas possessing potentially interfering compounds. Gas Chromatography Gas Chromatography Column Component separation is achieved using an appropriate packed column. The column consists of a suitable...

4060 SERIES - GAS CHROMATOGRAPHS Sample Handling System Optimal control of temperature and flow rates for the column, detector and sample handling components is critical for stable, repeatable readings. The Model 4060 sample system is sealed and insulated, utilizing PID controllers to ensure the ultimate temperature stability of the switching valve and column/detector compartment. Tubing, fittings and components within the sample system are 300-series stainless steel and Teflon. 4060A TCD Rack-Mount Analysis Compartment The carrier gas and other applicable utility gases are regulated using...

4060 SERIES - GAS CHROMATOGRAPHS Detector Technologies Flame-Ionization Detector (FID) Because of its high sensitivity to most organic compounds, the flame ionization detector is a powerful tool for measuring hydrocarbon impurities in gases. It also provides a linear response over a wide range of analysis. Figure A shows the general construction of an FID. Organic compounds from the sample stream or separation column are injected into the detector housing where they are mixed with Hydrogen and air before entering the detector jet where the mixture is burned. During this process, organic...
