SRI Family of Educational GC Systems
SRI Educational GC systems are ideal for undergraduate chemistry classes where the principles of gas chromatography are demonstrated on the same equipment students will encounter in industry. These GCs are configured on the compact 310 chassis, so they take up a minimum of bench space. Choose from two detector types: Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD) or Flame Ionization Detector (FID), and standard or gasless configurations. Each SRI Educational GC includes a single channel, Windows-based PeakSimple data system, a one meter Silica Gel or HaySep D packed column, and Electronic Pressure Control (EPC). Gasless Educational GCs also include built-in, whisper-quiet air compressors, and for the FID GC, a hydrogen generator, which allows for operation without external gas supplies.
