Gasmet CX4000 FTIR gas analyzer allows the simultaneous measurement of up to 50 gas compounds. CX4000 FTIR has a multipass sample cell which is heated to 180 C and features rhodium-gold plated mirrors.

The hot-extractive sampling system consists of a heated sample gas probe, heated sample lines and heated sample pump unit. Two-stage particle filtration is used in order to remove particles from the sample gas. The sample pump unit includes gas connections for the CX4000 FTIR gas analyzer, optional O2 & FID analyzers and span & zero gas.  

The industrial PC is used processing & storing the sample spectra with Calcmet - software. The Calcmet software analyzes the sample spectrum using sophisticated analysis algorithms. Cross-interference from other gases is automatically taken into account in the analysis settings of each compound. Since water content of the sample gas is measured, the results can be reported on either “wet” or “dry” basis. With Gasmet CEMS, TOC can be measured without an additional FID – analyzer (as a sum of individual hydrocarbons).

From the industrial computer, the analysis results can be transferred with analog 4 – 20 mA outputs and various digital protocols (e.g. MODBUS, PROFIBUS). Alarms can be transferred with relay contacts. The Gasmet CEMS also provides different alarm functions. If any of the critical alarms is activated, instrument air starts to flow automatically into the system to prevent condensation.

With FTIR measurement technology there is no need to do any span or re-calibrations, only zero calibration with nitrogen every 24 hours. Automated span checks are also supported as standard.
