Automatic GC/PID System for BTEX and 1,3-Butadiene Monitoring – airTOXIC BTX PID

The airTOXIC BTX PID is an automatic monitoring device that detects BTEX compounds (Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene, Xylene) and 1,3-Butadiene in air, water, and soil

This device utilizes gas chromatography (GC) with a photoionization detector (PID) to continuously monitor BTEX and 1,3-Butadiene. It integrates all functions, from sampling to data storage, into a 19″-5U standard rack, ensuring easy deployment in various environments.

Applications

Environmental Monitoring:

  • Indoor and outdoor air quality assessment
  • Urban and remote area air quality monitoring
  • Perimeter monitoring at refineries

Industrial Process Control:

  • Occupational safety monitoring
  • Industrial emissions monitoring
Category:

Operating Principle

The system operates using gas chromatography (GC) with a photoionization detector (PID) featuring a 10.6 eV UV lamp.
Ionization occurs when a molecule absorbs short-wavelength UV light, leading to ion formation:

R+hv→R++e−R + hv → R⁺ + e⁻

If the ionization potential of molecule R is equal to or lower than the photon energy hv, ionization occurs.

The PID detector contains a sealed, replaceable UV lamp that selectively emits energy. Available lamp options: 8.3 eV, 9.5 eV, 10.6 eV, and 11.7 eV.

The PID detector offers high linearity, ensuring accurate results.
