Thermo Scientific™ APIX/APIMS δQ and APIX/APIMS Quattro Ultra High Purity (UHP) Electronic Gas Analyzers can be used for routine continuous monitoring of contaminants, such as water and oxygen, to single-digit ppt levels.
These gas analyzers provide a cost-effective alternative to conventional quality control approaches, monitoring each bulk gas for a variety of possible contaminants while attaining lower detection limits (up to 100 times better) than any other technology.
- Industry standard communications protocol for plant control and integration
- Reliable, completely automated method for online quality control
- Fast online measurement (~ five seconds for entire analysis)
- High sensitivity with a lower detection capability of < 10 ppt
- Automatic switching and calibration
