Automatic sequential sampling system for gases contained in bags

TE Instruments' GBS is an automatic sequential sampling system designed for analyzing atmospheric pressure gases contained in bags (e.g., Tedlar™).

Engineered as a standalone module with a touchscreen interface, the GBS sampler integrates seamlessly with the XPLORER elemental analyzer.

Key Features

  • Automated management of up to 10 samples in sequence: eliminates the need for manual intervention, minimizing the risk of cross-contamination
  • Precision and Calibration: enables multi-point calibration starting from a single standard through the automatic sampling of variable volumes (10-1000 mL)
  • Analytical Performance: achieves ppb-level limits of detection (LOD) with high repeatability, thanks to 100 mL gas-tight syringes and programmable purge cycles
  • Integrated Safety: continuous monitoring via a hydrocarbon leak sensor with automatic flow shutoff and manual post-inspection reset.
