ECD and TCD adapters
A makeup gas adapter must be installed in the ECD or TCD base to install a capillary column, and to augment carrier flow through the column with additional gas flow needed for optimal detector operation. The adapter must be removed for packed column applications.
In addition, to install an HP Series 530¿ capillary column in an ECD or TCD having no capillary makeup gas adapter, the following adapters are used: Part No. 19244•80550for the ECD, and Part No. 18740•20950and 18740•20960for the TCD.
Finally, to use a 1/4•inchcolumn with the TCD (having a base designed for 1/8•inchcolumns), a 1/8•to 1/4•inchadapter is required (Part No. 19302•80020). For the ECD (having a base designed for 1/4•inch columns), to use a 1/8•inchcolumn, a 1/4•to 1/8•inchadapter is required (Part No. 19301•80530).
