DX4040 FTIR Gas Analyzer
The Portable FTIR Gas Analyzer
The Gasmet DX4040 analyzer combines Fourier
transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, rhodiumgold coated sample cell, built-in sample gas pump
and signal processing electronics in a compact
unit.
In battery use, operating time is 2.5 hours with
one charge. AC power supply is also included.
There is a filter for particulates inside the probe
and no sample preparation is needed. The
lightweight analyzer can be used with or without
the durable Teflon coated backpack.
The Gasmet DX4040 is designed for on-site
measurements of different compounds (both
organic & inorganic) at low concentrations in
ambient air. Typical usage areas include industrial
hygiene and emergency response situations. The
communication between the analyzer module and
the PDA is wireless (with Bluetooth protocol).
In the standard configuration, concentrations of 25
gases of interest can be simultaneously
monitored.
Furthermore, with the optional Calcmet 4040
Professional software the analyzer can be
connected to a laptop PC for extended analysis
capability (e.g. identification of unknown
compounds with library spectra).
There are no consumable parts that would need
replacing on regular basis. In addition, due to
FTIR technology, the calibrations remain very
stable. Hence no span calibrations are needed.
Also, cross-interferences (i.e. interference from
other gases) are automatically compensated in
the analysis algorithm during the calculation of the
results.
To sum up, the Gasmet DX4040 provides a very
cost-effective, easy-to-use solution for multicomponent gas analysis in ambient air.
