A detector system (10) especially suited for detecting a halogen containing component in a gas stream includes a gas chromatograph (12), which is connected by gas line (13) to pyrolysis chamber (14). Sources (16) of additional gas streams are connected by a gas line (18) to the pyrolysis chamber (14). The detector electrodes in the pyrolysis chamber (14) are electrically connected to detector electronics (20) by line (22). A temperature control circuit (24) is electrically connected to heater (26) by line (28). Heater (26) is thermally coupled to the pyrolysis chamber (b 14) at (30). The pyrolysis chamber (14) is thermally coupled to thermocouple (32) at (34). The thermocouple (32) is electrically connected to the temperature control circuit (24) by line (36). The heater (26) is independent of the detector electrodes and maintains a temperature between about 700 degrees and 1000 degrees Centigrade. The detector electrodes are substantially alkali metal free.
