A trace gas analyzer configurable to a wide range of applications

Chris Davis
Product Manager

Offering a non-depleting Plasma Emission Detector (PED), Flame Ionization Detector (FID) and Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD), the Chroma analyzer is one of the most versatile gas analyzers for trace gas measurement available. Most applications will be satisfied by a single 4U rack analyzer configuration, making the Chroma a compact, cost-effective solution for continuous process control or quality monitoring.

High versatility for diverse application needs

Applications that depend on the very highest levels of product purity depend on trace analysis of exceptional sensitivity and performance. Impurities requiring measurement are both diverse in nature and found in a number of background gas streams, so high flexibility is also a must. Measurements need to be reliable, so a technology that can provide stability is essential. No matter what your application monitoring requirements, you’ll also want a solution that is easy to use and has a low lifetime cost-of-ownership. We don’t believe you should have to compromise.

A no-compromise solutuion

The Chroma’s flexible ultra-trace analysis is delivered through a smart combination of cutting-edge sensing technology and intelligent control software. Benefiting from the fast, accurate, sensitive and selective response of Servomex’s non-depleting Plasma Emission Detector (PED) cell, Flame Ionization Detector (FID) or Thermal Conductivity (TCD) technologies, the Chroma offers sophisticated configuration and performance options which are far ahead of the competition.

Easy and intuitive to use

Added to the Chroma’s measurement performance is its ability to provide an easy-to-use solution with added flexibility. Feature-rich software permits full device interaction remotely via Ethernet/Internet, while a full range of reporting options provide simplified statistical data analysis. The Chroma also features a user-friendly high resolution TFT color LCD for easy local configuration and interaction.

A powerful solution for process control and quality monitoring

The Chroma is a mainframe analyzer fully customizable to your application, with a number of performance and cost-saving benefits.

Software optimization

The Chroma is optimized via sophisticated and flexible operational software that offers access to all device functions via a PC. This updated software ensures increased security and stability, with a robust, Windows 10-based operating system.

Easy to use for complex applications

The Chroma has a fully automated, tune-to-the-application system for simplicity of use. PlasmaHC and ArgonSep technology supports the sophisticated sensor options, while a large, clear display screen makes operation easier.

Safer, cost-effective measurements

For CH4/NMHC measurements, the Plasma HC system requires no FID and therefore no H2 fuel gas, reducing costs and enhancing safety.

Unrivalled performance

  • Uses ultra-sensitive and highly selective patented PED sensing technology, delivering the highest reliability and performance currently available
  • PlasmaHC measures methane and NMHC without the use of a FID, eliminating the need for maintenance and fuel. ArgonSep separates Ar from O2 without the need for scrubbers, providing a sensitive, maintenance-free measurement

 

Flexible

  • Comprehensive solution for ultra-trace H2, He, O2, N2, Ar, CH4, CO, CO2 and NMHC in a number of background gases; H2, O2, N2, Ar, He and CO2
  • Plasma, FID and TCD technologies used depending on application
  • Compact design that fits into a single 4U rack
  • Flexible communication options including Ethernet, RS232 and 4-20 mA output

 

Easy to use

  • Comprehensive device interaction and monitoring via intelligent software
  • Remote configuration via Ethernet/Internet
  • Electronic carrier and sample flow PID control system
  • Remote range I.D. contact per impurity

 

Low cost of ownership

  • Simplified reporting functions facilitated by the software
  • PED sensing technology does not require a separate methanizer

 

Benchmark compliance

  • Class B digital apparatus requirements of ICES-001 of Canada through the application of EN 61000-6-3:2007
  • Part 15 of the US FCC rules for Class B equipment
  • IEC 61010-1 for electrical safety
  • EC “Low Voltage Directive” by application of EN 61010-1 and rated for Over Voltage Category II, Pollution Degree 2

Gases sensed, measurements and technologies

Using highly accurate Gas Chromatography techniques, the Chroma is capable of trace measurements at part-per-million, parts-per-billion, or percentage levels in a range of background gases.
