Griffin™ G510
The FLIR Griffin™ G510 GC/MS is a versatile, person-portable chemical identifier. It can analyze all phases of matter (liquid, solid, vapor). The integrated heated sample probe enables hot zone operators to identify vapor-phase chemical threats within seconds when operated in Survey Mode. The integrated split/splitless injector allows for environmental, forensic, and hazardous material sampling via syringe injection of organic liquids. The 9” touchscreen can be operated while wearing full PPE downrange. It is built with an IP65-rated enclosure.
