Un exemple typique d'un détecteur à ionisation de flamme [...] On observe que le courant du gaz vecteur provenant de la colonne est mélangé à l'hydrogène. Ce mélange passe à travers un brûleur dont la flamme est entretenue continuellement grâce à l'air qui arrive latéralement. Le brûleur isolé du reste de l'appareil ou du détecteur donne un potentiel de polarisation. Ce brûleur est à un potentiel positif par rapport à une électrode centrale de mesure du courant.[...] Il est possible d'inverser la polarisation du système, à savoir de porter le brûleur à un potentiel négatif par rapport à l'électrode; ceci ne change en rien la valeur du signal obtenu, sinon qu'il est de sens contraire par rapport au signal obtenu dans le cas précédent. 1, record 9, French, - br%C3%BBleur
