FCX-Series FTIR Gas Analyzer

FCX-Series FTIR Gas Analyzer

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Gasmet FCX-Series is a high-performance FTIR process gas analyzer designed for reliable analysis of complex gas mixtures. It integrates a Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer, gas cell, signal processing electronics, an industrial computer, and a TFT display within a compact, wall-mounted enclosure.
Specifications: The analyzer supports 1 to 50 components with a response time of less than 120 seconds. It operates within a temperature range of 5-30°C and features a Vortex cooling system. The power supply options are 100-115 or 230 V, with a consumption of 500 W.
Spectrometer Details: The spectrometer offers resolutions of 8 cm-1 or 4 cm-1 and scan frequencies of 10 or 4 scans per second. It uses a SiC IR source at 1550 K, a Peltier cooled MCT detector, and a ZnSe beamsplitter.
Sample Cell: Available in multi-pass or single-pass configurations, with lengths from 1 cm to 9.8 m. Materials include stainless steel or gold/rhodium-coated aluminum. The maximum temperature is 180°C, with BaF2 or ZnSe window materials.
Measuring Parameters: Zero point calibration is required every 24 hours with nitrogen. The analyzer has a zero point drift of less than 2% per calibration interval and no sensitivity drift. Linearity deviation and temperature drifts are both under 2% of the measuring range.
Gas Inlet and Outlet Conditions: The sample gas should be non-condensing and match the sample cell temperature, with a flow rate of 120-600 liters per hour. Filtration of particulates (2 µm) is necessary.
Electronics and Computer: Features a 32-bit floating point DSP with 120 MFLOPS, a 2 GHz Intel Celeron processor, 256 MB SDRAM, and a hard disk over 40 GB. It runs on Windows 7 (32-bit) with Calcmet software.
Outputs and I/O: Includes isolated 4-20 mA outputs for up to 16 components, digital RS-232 Modbus, and various relay outputs. I/O is located in the FCX or the sampling system if delivered with Gasmet MSS or MSSH.
Air Conditioning: Equipped with a Vortex cooling system, with other options available. The cooling capacity is 270 W, with air consumption at 425 Nl/min.
Options: Additional features include a sample pump for ambient air, automatic zero valve, remote control capabilities, and pressure measurement inside the sample cell.
Enclosure: Made of stainless steel, measuring 800 x 600 x 300 mm, weighing 50 kg, and offering IP 65 protection.
Compliance: The analyzer is CE labeled according to EMI guideline 89/336/EC.
