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.

TD Core

Simplicity, Compatibility, and Unmatched Reliability. Dedicated thermal desorption system for standard air analysis methods – valve- and cryogen free.

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 Desorber 3.5+ (TD 3.5+)

Offering more for Material Emissions-, Flavor-, and Air Analysis.

The Thermal Desorber TD 3.5+ is a flexible automated solution for thermal desorption and thermal extraction. The TD 3.5+ fits on top of any modern GC without the need for additional bench space and it is perfectly suited for the analysis material and for thermal desorption of sorbent tubes used to sample whole air. The TD 3.5+ handles standard 3.5″ tubes, as prescribed in several standard methods, in addition to GERSTEL plus tubes, which hold up to 20% more sorbent for enhanced break-through volume, improved recovery as well as improved limits of detection.

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 Desorption Unit (TDU 2)

The worlds most flexible Thermal Desoprtion Instrument

The Thermal Desorption Unit (TDU 2) is a flexible automated solution for thermal desorption and thermal extraction. The TDU 2 fits on top of any modern GC without the need for additional bench space and it is perfectly suited for the analysis of gaseous, liquid and solid samples.

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 Spiking System (TSS)

Automated spiking of standard tubes for thermal desorption (TDU/TDS)

Why cumbersome and complicated when it can be done in such as simple way: In combination with the GERSTEL MPS Robotic series, the GERSTEL Tube Spiking System (TSS) enables atuomated generation of standard tubes for Thermal Desorption analysis. Adsorbent tubes are spiked with a user defined volume of liquid standard and solvent purged with a defined flow of carrier gas as required for method calibration and validation according to international standard methods. Up to five tubes can be mounted and spiked in every TSS unit and multiple TSS unis can be mounted on the MPS for higher throughput.

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.
