EPA TO-17 Calibration: Gas-Phase Standards for Sorbent Tubes and Thermal Desorption

In short: EPA Method TO-17 measures VOCs collected by active sampling on sorbent tubes and analysed by thermal desorption (TD) GC–MS. Reliable quantification depends on calibration standards loaded onto the tube in the gas phase, the same physical state as the field sample. GasMix and LiqMix dynamic dilution systems generate these matrix-matched, multipoint standards on

Dynamic Precision: Why Active MFCs are Outpacing Static Sonic Nozzles

Why MFC Flexibility is Redefining Modern Metrology 1. Fundamental Operating Principles: Stability vs. Agility The Sonic Nozzle (Fixed Geometry): This technology generates mass flow by accelerating gas to the speed of sound at a fixed orifice (choked flow). While mechanically elegant, it is inherently discrete; flow is locked into fixed hardware steps, requiring physical manifold

What is a NIST ( or Equivalent) Traceable Certified Value?

NIST Traceable Certified Value: What It Means and Why It Matters for Gas Calibration If you work in gas analysis, environmental monitoring, or laboratory calibration, you have likely encountered the term NIST traceable certified value. But what does it actually mean — and why does it matter for the accuracy and legal defensibility of your measurements?
