A detector that measures the difference in thermal conductivity between two gas streams when a sample (gas mixture) passes through the sample channel. 6, record 2, English, - thermal%20conductivity%20detector
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
[It] is a dual channel detector, requiring a reference flow of pure carrier gas through the reference channel. 6, record 2, English, - thermal%20conductivity%20detector
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 OBS
The detector consists of a bridge circuit; the change in resistance in the sample channel during the passage of the sample produces an out-of-balance signal that is the basis of the detection. The detector responds to all components except the carrier gas and it is non-destructive. 6, record 2, English, - thermal%20conductivity%20detector

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 2 OBS
Le détecteur se compose d’un circuit en pont. La variation de résistance dans le canal d’échantillonnage pendant le passage de l’échantillon produit un déséquilibre du signal qui constitue le point de départ de la détection. Le détecteur, qui est non-destructif, répond à tous les constituants excepté le gaz vecteur. 3, record 2, French, - d%C3%A9tecteur%20%C3%A0%20conductivit%C3%A9%20thermique
