Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif servant à détecter des traces de vapeur dans un flux de gaz entraîneur. Ce procédé consiste à faire circuler un flux de gaz entraîneur à travers une zone d'analyse de spectromètre de mobilité d'ions à forte onde de champ asymétrique (FAIMS) (22), ce gaz entraîneur contenant un premier gaz et une quantité trace de vapeur. On introduit au moins un premier type d'ions indicateurs dans cette zone d'analyse et on détermine une tension d'équilibrage afin de transmettre ce premier type d'ions indicateurs à travers la zone d'analyse en présence du flux de gaz entraîneur et à une tension d'onde asymétrique donnée. On compare cette tension d'équilibrage déterminée à des données d'étalonnage associées à une tension d'équilibrage servant à transmettre le premier type d'ions indicateurs à travers la zone d'analyse à la tension d'onde asymétrique donnée en présence de chacune d'une pluralité de quantités traces différentes connues de la vapeur mélangée au premier gaz. Ceci permet de déterminer une quantité de vapeur du gaz entraîneur sans étape d'ionisation d'une partie importante de cette vapeur.
