Rugged design for continuous unattended operation Accurate, fast readings with low detection limits Excellent catalytic conversion of CO and CO2 to methane for Total Carbon Measurement Intuitive interface saves time during setup, configuration, and maintenance Unique graphs allow users to easily identify visual trends Seamless connectivity provides easy data transfer for record keeping The BASELINE® CHA Total Carbon Analyzer (CHA-TCA)is an instrument designed to measure total hydrocarbon content as well as provide a combined carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) reading for impurity detection at industrial and specialty gas companies.. This CO and CO2 gas analyzer uses a flame ionization detector (FID) in conjunction with a methanizing catalyst switched in and out of the sample stream. The catalyst converts CO and CO2 to methane to produce a total carbon reading. This catalytic reaction relies on the hydrogen (H2) in the fuel stream. The hydrocarbon only value is then subtracted from the total carbon concentration to determine the CO / CO2 reading. Detection limits down to < 0.1 ppm. User-programmable ranges from 1 ppm to 100 ppm are factory-configured per the customer’s application to facilitate installation and setup.
