CT-1128 Portable GC-MS
Gas Chromatograph-Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS)
analysis is routinely
used
in analytical laboratories worldwide. Frequently, it is used for
quantitative determination and characterization of both known and unknown
chemicals. However, most commercial GC-MS systems are large, non-portable,
laboratory based units. In order to transport them, the user must also
transport all the necessary support equipment such as a gas supply, a
vacuum system etc.
The CT-1128 is a light
weight, ruggedized, field serviceable device and is available to
Government organizations and private firms for environmental assessments,
arms control and non-proliferation activities, as well as detecting and
identifying hazardous substances released during an accident or terrorist
attack.
The
CT-1128 provides a cost-effective, efficient
means for analyzing, on-site, unknown chemicals in various emergency and
non-emergency circumstances. The CT-1128
weighs approximately 70 lbs and is only 15" L x 23" W x 15" H. It is
completely contained in a single carrying case housing the entire system.
With a range of 1.6 to 800 Atomic Mass Units (AMU) and a library of
hundreds of known spectra, the CT-1128 is
unmatched in its ability to allow First Responders, as well as others, to
quickly, efficiently, and reliably assess the situation and take the
proper precautions to protect everyone involved.

This photo shows the CT-1128 installed in a mobile laboratory. The laptop allows the user to interface with a main
laboratory, for analysis assistance.
