Peak Precision with Brose 

Alexander Mader is a Research Scientist for Brose, the world’s fifth-largest family-owned automotive supplier. In this latest question/answer session he describes how he uses his GC for indoor air quality, emission testing and lubricant analysis. Alexander also explains why he picked a Precision Hydrogen Trace 500 over other gas generators and explains how for the past 2 years he has had a consistent, reliable source of gas in his lab by using a Peak gas generator.

Typically, what is the focus of your GC analysis - what sort of applications?

"Indoor air quality, emission testing for the automotive industry as well as internal lubricant analysis."

What Peak Scientific generators do you have in your laboratory and what GC instruments do they supply?

"We supply two Thermo Fisher Trace 1310 coupled with single and triple quad mass spectrometers as well as a Thermodesorber ATD 650, and have a Peak Precision Hydrogen Trace 500."

What prompted you to choose a Peak generator and how long have you used them?

"We have used the Precision hydrogen generator for two years now and we picked Peak over other companies due to its good reputation."

What has been the key benefit of deploying Peak generators as opposed to your previous gas supply solution?

"The biggest advantage is to get rid of the heavy gas bottles and by doing this we do not run out of gas during our anaysis anymore, Murphys law, you know."

How would you describe your purchasing experience with Peak in terms of speed of response, ease of ordering, catering for your needs and timing of delivery?

"Overall we are very satisfied and will continue to change the rest of our gas bottles to generators in the near future."

Have you ever had a site visit from a Peak engineer, if so, could you describe your experience of this support?

"Yes we have and we are very satisfied with the support they provided. In fact I would go as far to say it was the fastest support I have ever seen."

Would you recommend Peak Scientific generators to other laboratories - and if so, what would be your main reason for the recommendation?

"We highly recommend Peak gas generators to other laboratories because of service, support and reliability they provide."


 

The Precision Hydrogen Trace 500 generator is designed primarily for GC carrier gas use, and can also be used for detectors requiring hydrogen fuel gas such as FID and FPD. With one generator capable of supplying multiple GC instruments, the Trace 500 offers a safe, reliable and convenient solution for those using hydrogen for GC carrier gas. The Precision Hydrogen Trace 500 generator also comes with many highly robust safety features as standard, allowing for peace of mind in the laboratory and a far safer, dependable and more convenient alternative to cylinder gas.

Alexander and his team are also very happy with the level of aftersales support Peak deliver. He even went as far as to say it is the fastest support he has ever seen. Peak have a dedicated aftersales support team who are on-hand to assist if your gas generator develops a technical fault or if preventative maintenance is required. Having dedicated Peak Field Service Engineers stationed throughout the globe means that Peak are never far away – no matter where your laboratory resides. It is for this reason we are known as "Your local gas generation partner."
