title: Leak detection and low level monitoring of halogenated anesthetics.
abstract: Halogenated compounds used in anesthetics are generally detected and monitored by gas chromatography or infrared analysis. For a quick, reliable, and economical method of detecting these compounds, the HLD-440 leak detector proved to be effective. The instrument is simple to calibrate and operate. It is safe and is capable of detecting halogenated anesthetics in concentrations at least as low as 2 parts per million.
