The CryoSulfur GC uses a vacuum pump (included) to draw gas samples into the CryoCooler. You can sample ambient air, or use the provided adaptor to connect a Tedlar bag. The vacuum pump interface, which is an electrical outlet on the left-hand sife of the GC, allows the vacuum pump to be turned ON/OFF by the PeakSimple data sysrem to provide consistent sampling times.

This chromatogram, generated by an SRI CryoSulfur GC, shows the FPD response to 10ppb hydrogen sulfide (H2S) as enriched by the CryoCooler at -10oC.
