Product catalog summary
Overview
The PGC 490 is an ATEX explosion-proof process chromatograph designed for on-line analysis of gaseous effluents and vapors in various industrial environments such as refining, petrochemicals, nuclear power plants, and natural gas. It features a modular design for integration into control systems and can function as a regulation sensor.

Software and Communication
The Soprane II software, developed by SRA Instruments, provides a user-friendly graphical environment for defining analysis methods, controlling valves, and managing multiple streams. It supports communication protocols like Modbus and Profibus, and offers analog transmission and alarm capabilities.

Technical Specifications
  • Injector: Micro-machined with variable volume, optional heated injector and backflush capability.
  • Injection Volume: 1 to 10 µL, software-selectable.
  • Column: Capillary fused silica, temperature range from ambient +15 °C to 180 °C.
  • Detector: Micro-machined thermal conductivity detector (µTCD).
  • Communication: Ethernet with optional embedded computer, configurable relay outputs, and optional analog signals.

Applications
The PGC 490 is suitable for analyzing fixed gases, hydrocarbons, and other compounds in fields such as natural gas, refining gas, fuel cells, catalysis, and biogas.

PGC 490 PROCESS MICROGC-1

PGC 490 PROCESS MICROGC Industrial analyzer for process applications II 2 G - Ex db IIC T5 Gb The process chromatograph PGC 490, ATEX explosion proof analyzer, uses the most advanced technologies to carry out on-line analysis of gaseous effluents and vapours in most industrial environments: Refining, Petrochemicals, Nuclear power plants, Natural gas, etc... ATEX MicroGC SRA Instruments It can also be used as a regulation sensor. Its modular design allows it to handle different applications and integrate them into all control systems. Field analyzer, its robust and compact construction adapts to the installation in the industrial field: outdoor, in hazardous areas (external explosion proof cover). Soprane II software Suitable for MicroGC process applications, Soprane II, developed by SRA Instruments, has a powerful, efficient and easyto-use graphical environment. Soprane II allows you to define analysis methods and sequences, control valves, manage several streams. Most communication possibilities are supported, such as Modbus, Profibus, analog transmission, alarms... Low ownership costs The modular construction makes it possible to achieve optimum design for each application and thus minimise the costs of study and installation. Low maintenance and low gas consumption save the user money compared to a conventional solution. Plug and Play technology reduces downtime to a minimum as analytical parts are changed on site directly by the user.
