VUV Analytics VGA-101 Vacuum Ultraviolet Detector for GC
Latest Innovation VUV Spectroscopy
Extended wavelength and temperature
The VGA-101 is the latest advancement in vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) detection featuring an expanded wavelength spectrum and a higher allowable maximum operating temperature. It builds on the innovations pioneered by the world’s first benchtop VUV spectrometer, the VGA-100. The VGA-100 is a universal mass-sensitive gas chromatography (GC) detector that provides both qualitative and quantitative data with excellent sensitivity and selectivity.
An expanded wavelength spectrum of 120 / 430 nm provides unique selectivity for complex structures such as polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The ability to operate the VUV detector as high as 430 °C allows the analysis of high boiling point compounds, whilst high frequency data collection in combination and a dedicated flow cell allow this detector to be used for high speed GC and Comprehensive (GCxGC) techniques
VUV Analytics has extended the usefulness of absorption spectroscopy into the powerful Vacuum Ultraviolet region where most gas phase molecules absorb strongly and uniquely. This high energy, low wavelength energy produces electronic transitions in virtually all chemical bonds including ground state to excited state σ→ σ* and π→ π*. VUV spectroscopy has been made available to the general scientific community for the first time ever with the VGA-101 detector.
Benefits
