Purge and trap - loss of methylene chloride

[James_Ball]

Hi, Hope you sorted the DCM loss problem...
Just seeing if you had a copy of Teklink software you could share. I have a Aerotrap 6000/Aerocan system which i'm setting up and the hand controllor is pretty inconvenient! Any help in aquiring the software would be appreciated.
Thanks, Charles

I was unaware that software existed for the 3000 series concentrator, which I use in my lab. It does not seem to be listed on Tekmar's software update links.http://www.teledynetekmar.com/Resource-Center/software-firmware-updates. If you do find a source; please link it.

There was software even for the 2000 series but that was made for Windows 3.11 and maybe Windows95. I doubt they currently have anything for such old models as the 2000/3000/3100 series available now, though someone might have a old copy out there.

Thank you for that clarification.

Thanks for your comments James. The Teklink software is not available. I have checked with Teledyne. I'm not sure how instrument specific it was. It usually needed a minimum ROM version level and ran on Win 3.x. At this stage, I'm happy to try any versions anyone may have to offer Cheers, Charles

Still having this issue?
My feeling is the problem is caused by water.
I use the Vocarb 3000 trap, purge for 11 min, and dry purge for 6 min.
I have my P&T connected in series with the injection port's supply line ( cut and connected with swage lock unions).
I run my injection port @ 200C, with a 150:1 split, using a 1 mm liner.
