C Note: Plumbing side of Torch with covers removed. A. Combustion Furnace - The combustion furnace provides the high temperature necessary to oxidize the carbon in the sample into CO2. The combustion tube contains a bed of proprietary catalyst that promotes oxidation of organics. Access to the combustion tube is simplified by using a unique rail system for furnace movement. The design of the furnace permits easy installation, monitoring and maintenance of the combustion tube. I. Moisture Control System (MCS) - The Torch MCS consists of a mist trap and permeation dryer, both of which are designed...
