Product catalog summary
Principle of Operation
The NovaPRO Process Gas Chromatograph (GC) is engineered for high-resolution analysis in hazardous environments. It features eight temperature-controlled column ovens for precise temperature management, reducing analysis time and enhancing performance. The system is explosion-proof and designed for continuous operation in harsh conditions, with a purged design for safety.
Features
The NovaPRO GC includes a large capacitive touch screen, electronic pressure and flow controls, and a robust stainless steel enclosure. It supports communication protocols like Profibus and Modbus, facilitating easy integration with Distributed Control Systems (DCS). The system is designed for easy servicing and low cost of ownership, with options for internal cooling and corrosion-resistant materials.
Applications
The NovaPRO is suitable for industries such as hydrocarbons processing, petrochemicals, hydrogen production, and environmental monitoring. It provides continuous monitoring of gaseous or liquid streams in various processes, including refining, petrochemical, power, and fine chemicals.
Sample Conditioning
Sample conditioning is essential for reliable measurements and minimizing maintenance costs. AGC Instruments offers customized sample conditioning systems to ensure high sensitivity and precision in analysis.
Detectors
The NovaPRO GC supports various detectors, including:
  • Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD-4000): High linearity and sensitivity, with a response time of less than 1 second.
  • Discharge Ionisation Detector (DID-1000): Low ppb measurements with high stability and performance.
  • Flame Ionisation Detector (FID-3000): Measures hydrocarbon concentrations with high sensitivity and fast response time.
  • Flame Photometric Detector (FPD-5000): Detects sulfur or phosphorus compounds with specific sensitivity levels.
  • Photo Ionisation Detector (PID-6000): Functions similarly to DID but without helium, offering high sensitivity.
TrendVision PRO Software
TrendVision PRO is an embedded chromatography software package for NovaPRO users, offering multi-level calibration, real-time chromatogram analysis, and automatic performance validation. It supports various alarm settings and custom report generation.
Key Features
  • Supports multiple communication protocols including 4-20 mA outputs, Profibus, Modbus, RS232, and RS485.
  • Programmable relays for event control and sophisticated multi-sample method programming.
  • Complete digital control of temperature and gas flows, with graphic features for data visualization.
  • On-line customer support and direct internet support are included.
Specifications
  • Measuring range includes ppb, ppm, and % levels.
  • Operating temperatures range from -10 to +50 degrees Celsius.
  • Explosion-proof enclosure with stainless steel and polyester powder coating.
  • Large capacitive 12.1” touch screen display.
  • Power supply options of 110V/220V, 50/60Hz.
  • Various stainless steel gas line options with corrosion-resistant materials available.
  • Multiple valve configurations with air actuation.
  • Comprehensive alarm systems for impurities, gas flow, temperature, and maintenance status.
  • Columns include packed, micropacked, and capillary types with independent temperature control.
  • Embedded industrial computer with Windows® OS and AGC TrendVision PRO software.
  • Available detectors include TCD, FID, FPD, DID, and PID.
Testing and Certifications
  • Includes burn-in tests, insulation tests, and voltage variation tests.
