Thermo Scientific Position on Hydrogen with GC-MS
• Hydrogen Kit• Required to Run with H2
• Required for H2 Specifications• Includes Hydrogen Sensor• Requires 300 L/s Turbo Pump
• Upgrades in the Field• All existing ISQ GC-MS Systems
are either already H2 capable or are upgradeable with 300 L/s Turbo and H2 Kit
• IF you decide to use your existing Thermo Scientific™ DSQ™, DSQ II & ITQ GC-MS with H2, you do so at your own risk.• Thermo Scientific™
Hydrogen Systems• ISQ™ Single Quadrupole GC-MS• TRACE™ 1300 Series GC• TSQ™ 8000 GC-MS/MS• Explosion Tested
& Safety Certified

ISQ GC-MS Hydrogen Carrier Installation Specs
• ISQ Single Quadrupole GC-MS• Guaranteed installation specifications with hydrogen carrier gas• Choice of either He or H2 on installation spec sign-off• PCI/NCI same S/N!
* Requires Hydrogen Kit for H2.
In EI mode, 1 μL of 1 pg/μL octafluoronaphthalene (OFN) will produce the following minimum signal to noise for m/z 272 when scanning from 50 – 300 u:
1,500:1 100:1
In PCI mode, 1 μL of 100 pg/μL benzophenone will produce the following minimum signal to noise for m/z 183 when scanning from 80 – 230 u using methane reagent gas:
300:1 300:1
In NCI mode, 2 μL of 100 fg/μL of OFN will produce the following minimum signal to noise for m/z 272 when scanning from 50 – 300 u using methane reagent gas:
600:1 600:1

Understanding Hydrogen Plumbing
• Tubing• Stainless steel preferred• 1/8” pre-cleaned• New tubing is preferred
over used with He
• Gas Filter, triple stage
• Filter – only need with tanks• For removal of water,
oxygen and hydrocarbons
What you need to know about plumbing up hydrogen to your GC

Moving To Hydrogen on the GC Side
• Hydrogen Sensor is a Must• In GC oven• Possible on the hydrogen generator• May also be required at the ceiling of the lab
• Expect Lower Inlet Pressure• Due to viscosity differences of H2 and He• Move to a smaller id column

34
Moving to Hydrogen on the MS Side
• NO MS hardware change required to meet H2 Installation Specs• Maintain good vacuum
• Extended performance turbomolecular pumps
• 9.8 x 10 -6 Torr (1 ml/min hydrogen flow)
• Higher initial background• Minimized with stainless steel pre-cleaned tubing
• UHP Grade 5.0 or better Hydrogen Source
• Bake out source at 350°C for one hour with filament on
• CI Effect on some compounds• Require linear or quadratic fit
• Reduce flow rate of H2 into MS
• Pressure dependency:• Minimize solvent vapor with smaller id columns
