System
Saturated Detector
160ng Chrysene
EDR On
160ng Chrysene
Extended Dynamic Range mode continually ensures optimal detection in every scan for
trace components as well as components that exist in great abundance within the same
complex mixture. When detector approaches saturation, the system automatically
lowers the multiplier voltage, always ensuring optimal detection of components, even if
they co-elute.
Easily analyze complex mixtures that contain both trace residues as
well as compounds of high abundance in the same run.

2) Vial is typically heated
3) Volatiles leave the sample (matrix) and
migrate into the gas phase (headspace)
4) Headspace is sampled and sent to the GC
