Introduction

Installation and Operation Guide

How It Works

The splitter divides the effluent from a column among three different
detectors. The detectors can be operating at different pressures, that is, any
mix of the following can be used:

• Atmospheric pressure

FID (flame ionization detector)

TCD (thermal conductivity detector)

NPD (nitrogen phosphorus detector)

ECD (electron capture detector)

FPD (flame photometric detector)

• Below atmospheric pressure

MSD (mass selective detector)

• Above atmospheric pressure

AED (atomic emission detector)

The split ratio is determined by the length and diameter of tubing connecting
the splitter to the detectors. Tubing dimensions may be determined from

Table 2

on page 26 in this manual or from a spreadsheet calculator that is

included for calculating tubing dimensions for special situations.

Figure 1 shows the plumbing configuration for the G3183B splitter.
