CO, O2 and CH4 analysis

ChromaCO is an auto-GC coupled to a flame ionization detector (FID) with a catalytic methanizer designed for the analysis of CO, CO2 and CH4 for ambient or industrial air.

A sampling loop is used to inject a given amount of sample into the analytical columns. The columns are installed in an isothermal oven. Hydrogen or nitrogen is used as carrier gas. The methanizer enables the conversion of CO and CO2 to CH4 before detection by the FID.

The Vistachrom software enables the used to visualize and store data on a PC. Furthermore, it provides comfortable utilities to recalculate, calibrate and export data and to set-up measurement. The software allows the calculation of retention time, area, mass or concentration profiles.
