Carbon dioxide (CO2) analyzer for aromatic hydrocarbon detection in the beverage industry GOW MAC

Series 200AHC Aromatic Hydrocarbon Analyzer

Specific detection of benzene within beverage-grade carbon dioxide.

Trace aromatic impurity monitoring is of critical importance to carbon dioxide manufacturers and the carbonated beverage industry. The Series 200 AHC meets all ISBT Method 12.0 criteria for selective measurement of benzene in carbon dioxide. Continuous stream or batch sampling operations are readily performed.

The Series 200 AHC is specifically designed as a rugged, low cost, low maintenance, simple to operate, turn-key system. No cylinder support gases are needed. Calibration and sample introduction are totally automated. A newly designed photo-ionization detector (PID) and proprietary technology are used for the specific measurement of benzene without interference from other potential impurities in beverage-grade carbon dioxide. Detector response is linear over three orders of magnitude. The detectable limit for benzene is 3 ppb, which is far below the ISBT guideline limit of 20 ppb. GOW-MAC’s Series 200 AHC system is also capable of PC-based control and data logging. Full documentation is provided, along with optional customer training and support services.
