X, N or DETECTOR:
$5999 (includes installation kit) Performance: This new Model 4420 electrolytic conductivity detector for SELECTIVE your GC selectively detects halogen, sulfur and nitrogen compounds. Sensitivity is up to 20 times that of any other electrolytic conductivity detector. Perfect for both capillary and conventional packed columns.
tutes a chicken-and-egg argument. At any given point in time, the driving force may be greater from one direc tion than from the other. In one case the driving force is intellectual, in an other technological. Where we stand in this continuum at present is hard to say, but analytical chemists can profit from forces in either direction. Analyt ical problems should be selected both for their intellectual challenge and for their practical potential. This, more than anything else, separates analyti cal chemists from their colleagues in other fields of chemistry. Keeping the importance of this double focus in mind is essential to the healthy growth and well-being of our science. Acknowledgment
Compatibility: The 4420 is manufactured in ten different versions, each specifically engineered for neat installation and full compatibility with major gc's of the following types: HP 5790, 5890, 5880: PE Sigma 1-4, 300, 2000, and 8300; TRACOR 540, 560, 565 and 570; Varian 3300, 3400, 3700, and Vista series; Shimadzu; and IBM. Installs in 10 minutes.
