5.5 GC/MS Mode with Tenax Concentrator
This method is used for analyzing samples with concentration levels in the low part
per billion to high part per trillion range. This method is used when the loop method
fails to detect a chemical. This method is similar to the Tri-Bed concentrator
method, but uses a Tenax adsorbent in the concentrator. Refer to Chapter 6,
Methods for additional information on GC/MS methods.
NOTE: Before a GC/MS can be run in this Concentrator mode, the Tenax
concentrator must be installed. Refer to Section 2.9.4, Installing the Tenax
or Carbopack Concentrator, on page 2-31 for instructions. Once installed,
the Tenax concentrator must be cleaned before sampling begins.
