hydrides
The HNU PID consists of an ultraviolet lamp and an ion
chamber. The detector measures the concentration of
gases present in a sample using photoionization.
Photoionization occurs when a molecule absorbs a photon
(light energy) of sufficient energy, creating a positive ion
and an electron as shown below:
R + h = R+ + e-
Carrier gas deliveresthe sample to the ion chamber where
it is is exposed to photons generated by the ultraviolet
lamp. Molecules in the sample with ionization potentials Schematic of PID
less than or equal to the energy level of the lamp are
ionized. The ionization potential is that energy in electron
volts (eV) needed to free an electron from a molecule. A
positively biased accelerator electrode repels these ions,
causing them to travel to the collecting electrode, where
an analog signal proportional to the concentration of the
sample is generated. Sealed ultraviolet lamps are
available in four energies; 8.3, 9.5, 10.6, and 11.7
electron volts (eV). Detector selectivity (and sensitivity)
varies with each lamp. The PID is nondestructive, and can
be used in series with other detectors in the GC312.
Windowless (wl) PID
A high voltage atmospheric discharge without a
window of a gas such as Ar will produce two lines at
11.6 and 11.8 eV. This allows detection of CH3OD,
formaldehyds, chloroalkanes and ethane which are
nor detected with the 10.6 eV lamp.
Why Purchase a GC/PID (GC 121)
Ideal for simple applications like leak detection or IH
surveys of compounds with PELs of ppb to ppm.
Here, a GC is the only accurate field method to detect
these compounds in the field and make decisions
about reducing personnel exposures quickly.
