Enhancements to VOC detectors

Feedback from customers who use the Tiger PID (photoionisation detectors) for global occupational health and environmental monitoring applications has resulted in Ion Science introducing a series of enhancements to the standard short probe supplied with its Tiger and Tiger LT models.

Featuring a more robust design for increased sideways impact resistance, the new probe is easier to service and can be directly connected to Luer devices, which are commonly used in the medical device market, and now accepts 4mm and ¼in ID pipe push fit. A new leak-proof seal has also been developed to remain within the filter cap.

All new Tiger and TigerLT instruments will now be manufactured using the new system comprising probe, seal and filter clamp, and it can also be retrofitted to existing devices. Ion Science has also created kits that allow older instruments to be upgraded.

The instrument has a dynamic detection range of 1ppb to 20,000ppm.
