Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document discusses the MicroJet Cryo-Trap (MJT-2030E), a cryo-trapping system used in gas chromatography (GC) for high-resolution separation analysis of low boiling point compounds. This system is designed to improve ease of use while maintaining the fundamental performance of its predecessor, the MJT-1030Ex.

Specifications and Features
  • Cryo-Trapping Temperature: Achieves a stable cooling temperature of -196 ºC within 2 minutes using a liquid nitrogen jet.
  • Energy Efficiency: Consumes less than one-third of the liquid nitrogen compared to competitors, making it energy-efficient.
  • Design: Compact and energy-saving with safety features, including a newly designed tip for the liquid nitrogen feed tube.
  • Flow Controller: MJT-2030E flow controller allows for variable cooling temperatures and automatic control.

Operation Principle
The system uses a liquid nitrogen jet to cool the head of a separation column in the GC oven, trapping low boiling point compounds. The jet flow is then stopped, and the trapped volatiles are rapidly thermally desorbed using the heat of the GC oven at a rate of 800 ºC/min.

Applications
  • Headspace Analysis: Used for analyzing volatile compounds in samples such as red wine and biomass plastic bags.
  • Automated Analysis: Automates the manual analysis of temperature zones in EGA thermograms, reducing analysis time significantly.

Performance and Compatibility
  • Trapping Performance: Capable of trapping compounds like CO2 and ethane at low temperatures.
  • Compatibility: Supports various GC models and sample introduction devices, including pyrolyzers and auto-shot samplers.

Conclusion
The MJT-2030E offers improved usability and energy efficiency for cryo-trapping in GC analysis, making it a valuable tool for high-resolution separation of low boiling point compounds.

Background of development The thermal desorption analysis and headspace analysis require a considerably long time for sample introduction. Highresolution separation analysis of low boiling point compounds can be easily achieved by cryo-trapping the compounds with a narrow bandwidth, followed by rapid thermal desorption. For this purpose, the MicroJet Cryo-Trap (MJT-1030Ex), a cryo-trapping system for pyrolysis GC analysis, has been supplied to the market over ten years. The new model, the MicroJet Cryo-Trap (MJT-2030E), has the same fundamental performance as the previous model, yet with much...

Operation principle and flow diagram Newly designed tip of liquid nitrogen feed tube. Flow controller Pyrolyzer or other devices MicroJet tube Nitrogen cylinder In this system, nitrogen gas is liquefied by flowing about 3 to 7 L/min through a heat exchange coil immersed in liquid nitrogen and is blown as a jet flow against the head of the separation column in the GC oven to cool the local area where the analytes are trapped. Then the jet flow is stopped instantly by closing the solenoid valve, and at the same time the circulating heated air in the oven rapidly heats the cooled section of the...

Analysis examples using MicroJet Cryo-Trap Headspace analysis of red wine A headspace analysis of red wine using MicroJet Cryo-Trap is shown in Fig. 6. A one mL sample from the headspace gas of a red wine bottle was injected directly into the GC injector. The volatiles were cryo-trapped at the head of a separation column before starting GC/MS analysis. Typical compounds found in wine are observed.
