MCCD Detector
The unique Seacoast Science MEMS Chemi-Capacitive Detector is state-of-the-art technology that allows air to be used as a carrier gas (patents pending).
The MEMS chip sensor can be set at either of two levels of sensitivity.
- Standard sensitivity mode works well for polar compounds such as: ketones, alcohols, and esters.
- High sensitivity mode works well for compounds such as halogenated alkanes and substituted aromatics, as well as mixtures with one or more compound of low concentration.
Carrier Gas
Use room air as the carrier gas.
