Abstract: Firstly, the following check chip is set up into a heater: A check chip onto which a sample has been picked up by wiping out the surface of a check target, or a check chip formed by absorbing and collecting the sample into a filter. Here, the filter has been set up in a vibration-type or heating-type portable-type absorption probe in an attachment/detachment-capable manner. Secondly, a sample gas generated from the heated check chip is analyzed using a tandem-type mass spectrometer. This makes it possible to simplify the sample pick-up from various types of check targets, and to shorten the pick-up time and the checking time.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a monitoring device making it possible to measure the concentration of a target trace gas which has an ionization efficiency changed by the affect of impurities and which is absorbed on a pretreatment portion or piping, at a high accuracy and at real time, by adding an internal standard having a known concentration to the target trace gas. The concentration of the target trace gas is measured while an internal standard having substantially the same properties (such as ionization efficiency change and vapor pressure) as the target trace gas is added. The ion strengths of the target trace gas and the internal standard are compared to calibrate the concentration of the target trace gas. According to the present invention, the concentration of the target trace gas in gas containing impurities can be online measured at a real time and at high accuracy while being continuously calibrated.

The first sub-harness has a first press-fit terminal joined to each end of a first one of the electrical cables, and the first sub-harness has a first isolator holding the first press-fit terminal. The second sub-harness has a second press-fit terminal, a crimp terminal, and a connector housing for accommodating the crimp terminal, and a second isolator supporting the second press-fit terminal. The second press-fit terminal is connected to one end of a second one of the electrical cables, and the crimp terminal is connected to the other end of the second one of the electrical cables. A connection means is provided for connecting one of the press-fit terminal held by one of the first or second isolators to the press-fit terminal held by another of the first or second isolators.

Abstract: There are provided blocks (A), (B), . . . corresponding to pieces of sub-harness (A), (B), . . . . In each block, there are provided a longitudinal opening 14 and a bottom opening 16, which are arranged in the vertical direction, at a forward end portion of each accommodating chamber 11 for accommodating the spring contact point 23a of the connecting terminal 20(A), 20(B), . . . . When the blocks are put on each other in the vertical direction, the top 23a of the spring contact point 23 on the lower block 10(A) side gets into the bottom opening of the upper block 10(B) from the longitudinal opening 14. Therefore, the top 23a of the spring contact point 23 on the lower block 10(A) side comes into contact with the rear face of the base piece 23b of the spring contact point 23 on the upper block so that electrical continuity can be attained. Due to the foregoing, the splice between the pieces of subharness (A) and (B) can be absorbed.
