Model 200 Hydrocarbon Analyzer

The new VIG Industries, Inc. Model 200 is a microprocessor based, oven heated total hydrocarbon & methane / non-methane analyzer for high accuracy, sensitivity and stability. The Model 200 continually measures both methane and total hydrocarbons. VIG's Model 200 uses two independent Flame Ionization Detectors (FID's) to obtain methane and total hydrocarbon readings. A sample is fed to the analyzer via an internal heated pump. After the sample reaches the analyzer, a portion of the sample is trapped and fed through a column to separate the methane from the sample. Any remaining sample is backfluhed through the column to ensure a contaminant free column. The methane and untrapped samples are fed directly to the FID's for analysis of methane and total hydrocarbons. Methane is then subtracted from the total hydrocarbons to display a non-methane reading. The LCD display also indicates the amount of methane and total hydrocarbons.

The Model 200 utilizes two flame ionization detectors (FID's). The detectors, all sample lines, column and all solenoid valves that come in contact with the sample are maintained in a controlled, heated oven to prevent condensation, and to provide reliable performance in the analysis of concentrations of wide varieties of hydrocarbons in gaseous mixtures and in ambient air.

Applications

• Process Monitoring - continuous monitoring and alarm or control of: process gas streams utilizing organic solvents, crude oil and other chemicals containing hydrocarbons, etc....
