Abstract
A system and method of determining levels of contaminants in a base gas. A gas chromatography column is used as part of a cold trap. A sample of a base gas is fed through the gas chromatography column. Due to the temperature of the gas chromatography column, some of the contaminants concentrate. A purified carrier gas is directed through the reinforced tube assembly after contaminants have collected. The gas chromatography column is heated to a second temperature that releases at least some of the concentrated contaminants. The contaminants mix with the purified carrier gas to create a contaminated carrier gas. The contaminated carrier gas is directed to one or more testing units that analyze the contaminated carrier gas to quantify the contaminants.
