Hi
How do I remove FID signal from the report for a dual TCD & FID GC, we use just TCD detector to analyses gas samples and this issue appear yesterday.

Thanks Marty, I was afraid of that.
Too bad really since piecewise is the most conventional kind of multi-level calibration.
I train using the example of a typical pH meter where they still naturally calibrate at pH 4, 7, & 10. Therefore there…
You can swap out cylinders to do it, but that means a lot more tubing, etc. to purge when you want to run. With the EPC unit, you would simply load the appropriate method to use it and the switch is done at the instrument. Much less tubing to purge and…
Hello Community
We have a reproducabiility problem on GC-FID's. We run an alkane standard every day in the morning. Peak shapes are looks good but when i compare the total area of the peaks over the last weeks an month, its very bad, i have a standard…
Hi Agilent,
Due to helium shortage, we need to change carrier gas for our GC-FID. Most documentation for Agilent suggests either H2 or N2, and the Chemstation configuration shows those options as well.
We are considering using argon, however, I…
Carbon disulfide is another option for wash solvent when running naphtha or crude oil samples. It's response on FID is low compared to hydrocarbons, so there should be little to no response if some residual is in the syringe.
Since the FID and TCD are in series, I would guess that the extra noise on the peak through the FID is due to the TCD valve switching between carrier and reference. Try setting the FID signal rate to 5 Hz. Also, the FID makeup flow can be reduced or turned…
Hello,
To calculate the RSD and Pass/Fail results, one can try the following:
In the reporting go to the edtor and open "table properties"
In my specific case, I want to calculate RSD for Area, so I choose the column A, pA*s and press "Column…
