Abstract Text:
The first commercial PID was introduced at the Pittsburgh Conference in 1976 by HNU Systems. This detector was found to be 50-100 times more sensitive than the flame ionization detector (FID). The PID has gone through several redesigns since then and has found a niche in environmental EPA 502, 602, 8040 etc. and trace (ppb) analysis with more than 15,000 units sold.
