ChromaTHC

CH4 and Non-Methane Total Hydro Carbon (NMTHC) Monitoring and analysis of Methane and Non-Methane Hydrocarbons by flame ionization detection (ppm level analysis)

The chromaTHC is an automated isothermal industrial gas chromatograph dedicated to the analysis of volatile organic compounds in air (indoor, outdoor, combustion), industrial hygiene, pure gas like N₂/CO₂/O₂.

• As a fully automatic instrument, the CHROMATHC allows un-attended operation after commissioning 24/24.
• The injection is made via a loop and valve installed in an isothermal oven at a standard 80°C.
• The separation between CH₄ and (C₂H₆ for UHC) and NMTHC is achieved using a column with back flush.

Unlike other similar analyzers, there is no interference from oxygen.

To eliminate issues with flame fluctuation, a valve regulates carrier gas (hydrogen or Nitrogen or air).
The retention time drift is less than 0,3 %.

• The instrument has a flame ionization detector (FID) heated at 150°C with auto ignition.

VISTACHROM ® software :
Chromatotec developed software system allows :

• Remote monitoring
• Full traceability through archiving of results and QC
• Set up and control of threshold alarms
• Export of data MODBUS / MGS1 / 4-20mA /0-10V

Dedicated configurations of chroma THC:

• 2MIN: standard version for VOC monitoring in ambient air within 2 min (from 20 to 20000 ppb)
• 1 ppb: for clean air room applications tot rack VOCs in ambient air.
• OCU: solution for odor control unit manufacturers with analyzer, computer and gas generators in complete wall mounted box. SMS function available to inform when media support is saturated.

Options:

• Automatic validation: CALIB with internal automatic calibration and data validation from permeation tube
