TurboMatrix Headspace Series

The core of PerkinElmer’s headspace is our patented pressure-balance technology that far surpasses valve and loop in performance when it comes to accuracy and repeatability. Pressure-balance provides rapid transfer of analytes to the GC without re-equilibration in a gas-sampling valve or syringe and minimizes loss of analytes. Injection amount is programmable by time or by volume without requiring any hardware change.
