Pyrolysis Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer

Model: Py-GC-MS 8000
Buck Scientific Py-GC-MS 8000 pyrolysis gas chromatograph mass spectrometer for RoHS phthalate testing

Key Features

  • Detects RoHS 2.0 added phthalates (DIBP, DBP, BBP, DEHP, DNOP, DINP, DIDP), PBB, PBDE and thousands of other organic compounds, testing to IEC 62321-8 in 20–30 minutes per sample via automatic sampler, with detection limits of 0.003–0.005µg/mL
  • Pyrolysis sampling requires no reagents or solvent extraction — the sample is analyzed directly, generating no wastewater or waste liquid, with throughput of 40–45 samples per day
  • Direct solid/liquid pyrolysis up to 800°C at over 500°C/min heating rate with real-time temperature monitoring, suited to phthalates, PBBs and other high-boiling-point substances
  • Results independently compared against Agilent instruments with consistent, comparable performance; retention time repeatability ≤0.005% and quantitation repeatability ≤0.4%
  • High-precision quadrupole mass analyzer (1.5–1250 amu) with a long-life 13-stage electron multiplier detector (5-year warranty) and inert ceramic ion source, paired with a GC oven capable of 32-stage temperature ramps up to 450°C
  • Backed by a 2-year full-instrument warranty, free lifetime software upgrades, and no-charge on-site repair visits for the life of the instrument

About the Pyrolysis GC-MS

The Pyrolysis Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (model Py-GC-MS 8000) from Buck Scientific, USA, tests for RoHS 2.0 phthalates, PBB and PBDE to IEC 62321-8. It detects the phthalates DIBP, DBP, BBP, DEHP, DNOP, DINP and DIDP and thousands of other organic compounds, with detection limits of 0.003–0.005 µg/mL and a result in 20–30 minutes per sample through the automatic sampler.

Pyrolysis sampling needs no reagents and no solvent extraction, so the sample is analysed directly and no wastewater or waste liquid is generated; throughput is 40–45 samples per day. Solid or liquid samples are pyrolysed at up to 800 °C at a heating rate above 500 °C/min with real-time temperature monitoring, which suits phthalates, PBBs and other high-boiling-point substances. A quadrupole mass analyzer (1.5–1250 amu) is paired with a GC oven that supports 32-stage temperature ramps up to 450 °C.

Pyrolysis GC-MS: frequently asked questions

Which phthalates can the Py-GC-MS 8000 detect?

It detects the RoHS 2.0 phthalates DIBP, DBP, BBP, DEHP, DNOP, DINP and DIDP, plus PBB, PBDE and thousands of other organic compounds, with detection limits of 0.003–0.005 µg/mL.

Which standard does the Py-GC-MS 8000 test to?

IEC 62321-8, with a result in 20–30 minutes per sample through the automatic sampler.

Is sample preparation or solvent extraction needed?

No. Pyrolysis sampling needs no reagents or solvent extraction: the sample is analysed directly, so no wastewater or waste liquid is generated. Throughput is 40–45 samples per day.

What are the pyrolysis and GC-MS specifications?

Solid or liquid samples are pyrolysed at up to 800 °C at a heating rate above 500 °C/min with real-time temperature monitoring. The quadrupole mass analyzer covers 1.5–1250 amu, with a 13-stage electron multiplier detector and an inert ceramic ion source, and the GC oven supports 32-stage temperature ramps up to 450 °C. Retention time repeatability is ≤0.005% and quantitation repeatability is ≤0.4%.
