Evaluation of a Portable GC/PI Detector

11:35 AM - 11:55 AM  Total Time: 20 
Most portable direct-reading instruments are not capable of specifying individual chemical compounds or extremely bulky. Recently, a portable gas chromatograph/photoionization detector has been commercialized. This instrument is designed to measure individual VOC compounds, measure a worker's breathing zone exposure, and be portable. However, this instrument has not been fully evaluated via laboratory performance tests.
