The 12-800 by Gow-Mac Instrument Co is a flame ionization detector (FID) designed for gas chromatography. It features its sensitivity to most organic compounds. In addition, it is insensitive to specific functions such as temperature changes, minor flow change and certain components like water. For this specific model, it boasts its water insensitivity function making it suitable for trace organic analysis in aqueous solution. Using this tool, it can continuously measures the total hydrocarbon in a certain application. For its technicalities, it has a linearity range of 1 x 106 and a sensitivity of 1 x 10-12 g/sec HC. It comes with a construction which is made of St./Ceramic Insulation. Also, it comes with a maximum operating temperature of 300 °C and electric potential of 160 V.
