VICI manufactures several GC detectors. Our PDD (pulsed discharge detector) utilizes a stable, low-powered, pulsed DC discharge in helium as the ionization source. Performance is equal to or better than GC detectors with conventional radioactive sources. The microvolume, dual filament TCD (thermal conductivity detector) is a stand-alone unit optimized for capillary chromatography and enhanced sensitivity at low flow rates.
