Griffin 460 mobile gas chromatograph mass spectrometer
The Griffin 460 mobile gas chromatograph mass spectrometer (GC/MS) enables multimodal sample introduction for liquid, solid, and vapor samples while also providing continuous direct air monitoring. It is said to be the only mobile GC/MS to provide this range of sample introduction in a single system that also enables tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). The Griffin 460 is well-suited for field-based forensics and other mobile laboratory applications, as well as for integration into facility air handling systems. During continuous monitoring applications, it can be programmed to alert when it detects the presence of selected chemicals in both indoor and outdoor environments for near-real-time detection and identification of a chemical agent release. The system simplifies sample handling through the use of extremely lightweight accessories, such as a fully automated purge-and-trap accessory and the Griffin XSorber, a handheld vapor sampler with thermal desorption capabilities

ThermoVision A320G infrared camera
 The ThermoVision A320G infrared camera is designed for machine vision applications, and offers plug-and-play temperature measurement. The camera features image flow control that allows an external signal to control image streaming, a digital I/O switch for triggering and synchronization with external equipment, infrared monitor software that permits users to run up to nine cameras simultaneously, a built-in 25-deg lens with motorized auto-focus, and high sensitivity (<70 mK) for sharp images and excellent image quality (320¥240 pixels). It is compatible with the GigE Vision camera interface standard and supports the GenICam programming interface protocol, making it easy to integrate with digital visual cameras and third-party software, including IMAQ Vision and Common Vision Blox. This integration assesses problems and potential equipment failure in real-time.

Thermo Vision ExaminIR thermal analysis software
Designed to work with infrared camera systems, Thermo Vision ExaminIR thermal analysis software features control, recording, playback analysis and reporting functions. It performs real-time image analysis and provides playback features to open and analyze image sequences stored on a camera or a PC. The software features an extensive set of thermal analysis and measurement tools, including spot, line, and area measurements. A new image-segmentation tool provides quick designation of complex regions of interest for precise data analysis. It is compatible with Microsoft Windows XP and Vista operating systems.

ThermaCAM GasFindIR-LW infrared camera
The ThermaCAM GasFindIR-LW infrared camera can detect more than 20 different gases, including sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) — a greenhouse gas with an estimated atmospheric lifetime of 3,200 yr and a global warming potential 23,900 times that of CO2. Capable of scanning large areas to allow thermographers to locate SF6 gas leaks up to hundreds of feet away, it delivers real-time, high-resolution thermal images of gas leaks, which can be displayed on a standard TV or recorded digitally. The lightweight unit weighs only 4.6 lb and is powered by a camcorder battery. The GasFindIR-LW can also detect acetylchloride, allyl bromide, allyl chloride, allyl fluoride, 1,3-butadiene, ethylene, Freon 11, Freon 12, Freon 112, Freon 113, Freon 114, methylsilane, methyl vinyl ketone, methyl vinyl ether, propenal, propene, styrene, trichloroethylene, vinyl chloride, vinyl ether and vinylidene fluoride.

GasFindIR
The GasFindIR camera incorporates an infrared imager that employs a sensitive detector and cold filter to observe active leaks. This method replaces toxic vapor analyzers, or “sniffers,” which are labor-intensive, must be used at very close range, and only give an indication that a volatile organic compound (VOC) leak exists — unlike the camera, which clearly shows the leak. The GasFindIR enables workers to scan large areas to detect leaks, significantly increasing productivity.
