Environmental Considerations
The instrument should be operated in an environment which is comfortable for human habitation with reasonably constant temperature and humidity. Operation of the instrument at elevated temperatures (>30 °C) may result in an increased background noise from the photomultiplier tube.
Combustion Gas Requirements
The Agilent 355 SCD and 255 NCD both require a hydrogen source; the 355 SCD requires an air source, and the 255 NCD requires an oxygen source. Oxygen may be used for the ozone generator in either Detector to obtain a modest increase in sensitivity; the Dual Plasma Burner was designed for use
