A simple and effective solution to chlorine generation
For More Info, email: email:
Chlorine (Cl2) has always been a diffi cult gas to handle when using traditional gas cylinders. It is very reactive and problematic in terms of accuracy and its erratic shelf life. This has made life diffi cult for personnel working across a wide range of industries, such as in the water treatment sector.

With this in mind, Euro-Gas designed and developed their GazCal Gas Generator, which is now an indispensable tool for people working with chlorine gas. Engineers within the water industry fi nd this rugged, portable and battery-operated tool ideal for testing and calibration, both in the lab and in the plant. The GazCal comes in a robust and compact carrying case and enables rapid testing and calibration with negligible warm-up time. This simple to use device can be operated by anyone! Simply set the necessary PPM level via the unit’s dial-up digital display and it is ready for action. The Gazcal generates Cl2 levels ranging from 0.5 – 20 ppm and is also suited to act as a surrogate for the cross-calibration of O3, ClO2, COCl2, HF and F2.
Euro-Gas have designed the GazCal to overcome the usual problems of a low shelf life. Cell life is only used up when the unit is in operation, whilst traditional cylinders can simply die out after up to 6 months. The generator can therefore last for up to a decade, often without the necessity to change the cell and needing only a yearly recertifi cation of calibration, which can be carried out by Euro-Gas or qualifi ed technicians at the site.
The GazCal cell has a lifetime of 500ppm hours, equating to 100 hours of constant use at a 5ppm concentration level, which enables a minimum of 400 individual calibrations. Operators can see the life span of the generating cell on the unit’s cell life indicator. Once the cell is used up, a new generating cell can be installed easily. Depending on the level of experience that the engineer has with gas detection calibration, regular small gas cylinders will usually only perform around 5 – 10 calibrations per cylinder. The GazCal may initially be more costly than a small cylinder but in the longer term, the generator will be far more economical.
Moreover, gas cylinders only attain one specifi c concentration per cylinder purchased, say for instance 5ppm of Cl2, whereas the GazCal is totally adjustable between the 0.5ppm to 20.0ppm range and in 0.1ppm steps. Therefore, the Gazcal produces many different concentration levels from one device. In addition, low concentrations of Cl2 are effi ciently produced with the GazCal, even 1ppm and 2ppm levels, whereas it is extremely problematic to achieve cylinder stability at low concentration levels.

Are you trying to set up your lab for PFAS analysis?
Per- and polyfl uoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a large family of over 4,000 synthetic chemicals that have been widely used in industry and consumer products. Due to their carbon-fl uorine bonds, PFAS resist degradation and elevated temperatures. However, their characteristic stability means that PFAS can also persist and accumulate in the environment, which poses certain risks to animal and human health. For this reason, several PFAS are subject to regulations restricting their use and their concentrations in various matrices.
Understanding PFAS analytical methods and regulations as well as choosing the right instruments and consumables is key to getting your lab ready for PFAS analysis. To shorten startup time, Agilent provides LC/ MS/MS eMethods to get you up and running in the shortest time possible.
The PFAS in Drinking and Surface Water by LC/TQ eMethod is verifi ed for the separation and reliable detection of 100 native and isotopically labeled PFAS in drinking and wastewaters, including 60 PFAS with reported method detection limits. The method includes target compounds that are part of standard methods and regulatory lists such as EPA Method 537.1, EPA Method 533, SW-846 Method 8327, SW-846 Draft Method 8327, ASTM D7979-19, ASTM 7968-17a, ISO 21675:2019, Europe (EU) WfD & DWD, Japan Drinking Water Quality Standards, and Germany DIN methods. The Agilent 1290 Infi nity II LC and the Agilent 6470 triple quadrupole LC/MS are used in combination to provide high-quality LC/MS/MS results. Sample preparation is performed with Agilent SampliQ weak anion exchange (WAX) cartridges, and an Agilent ZORBAX RRHD Eclipse Plus C18 column is used in LC analysis.
In addition to acquisition and quantitation methods, the PFAS eMethod includes sample preparation protocols, a detailed training video with a step-by-step workfl ow guide, and references to expertly selected consumables and supplies to minimize cost and effort to design and plan the required analyses.
The eMethod makes use of the Agilent PFAS multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) database for triple quadrupole LC/MS, which features data for over 100 native and isotopically labeled PFAS. The database includes details of the intrinsic properties and identifi ers of PFAS such as chemical name, CAS number, and molecular formula. It also features optimized MRM parameters for the analysis of 72 native and 36 isotopically labeled compound from 14 PFAS groups, as well as retention time data from optimized methods.
The eMethod is designed for labs that want a widely applicable testing method and that do not plan to run dedicated regulated methods. For labs running regulated methods, the eMethod in conjunction with the Agilent PFAS MRM database can be a helpful building block to modify existing methods to expand analytical capabilities.
