Trace Chemical Detector (Analyzer)

This analyzer consists of gas chromatography with a dual polarity axial ion mobility spectrometer (AIMS).

This instrument is designed to detect explosives, narcotics, and other threat substances like: human odors, characteristic compounds of contraband tobacco bulk shipments and specific bio-markers indicative of pathogens or other biological threat materials. Food volatiles can be programmed to determine food spoilage or contraband food items.

After the sample is acquired (use our hand-held or high volume sampling system) the sample card is introduced into the analyzer for sample vaporization and analysis.
