FLIR Systems [FLIR] has introduced the Griffin 460, a mobile gas chromatograph, mass spectrometer instrument that allows multi-modal sample introduction for liquid, solid and vapor samples while also providing continuous, direct air monitoring. The company says the new system is ideal for field-based forensics and other mobile laboratory applications, as well as for integration into facility air handling systems. During continuous air monitoring, the Griffin 460 can be programmed to alert at the presence of selected chemicals in both indoor and outdoor environments for near real-time detection and identification of a chemical agent release.
