 Defiant Technologies (USA) has developed a new MEMS based gas chromatography system dubbed the FROG-4000. In about 5 minutes, this new GC-PID micro-system will detect benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes, TCE, PCE, and other VOCs in water and soil down to 1 ppb. FROG-4000 reports the chemical name and concentration on its display screen and stores every chromatogram on a micro-SD card for later use. This game-changing technology enables lab quality results at the field sampling site. FROG-4000 saves money and time; no more waiting for results from an offsite lab while expensive machinery and labor sit idle. All of this is made possible with cutting edge microfabricated technology that shrinks lab equipment down to battery operated components. FROG-4000 uses ambient air as its carrier gas and can operate 6 to 8 hours on its rechargeable battery. Defiant Technologies is delighted to bring the FROG-4000 to the market.
