Specific vapour analyser for sulphur hexafluoride enables non-technical personel make fast, accurate measurements down to below 1ppm, with minimal training
Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) is an important industrial gas, used as an insulator in electrical switchgear and in metal processing. It is, however, a very potent 'greenhouse gas' so it is important to control leakage from these applications.
It is also used as a tracer gas for testing ventilation systems and its use is prescribed in US, UK and European norms for testing laboratory fume cupboards.
The InfraRan specific vapour analyser from Wilks provides real time, on-site measurements of SF6 down to below 1ppm.
A measuring range of 0-10ppm, resolution of 0.01 ppm and typical response time of 5-10 seconds make the instrument ideal for tracer and leak detection applications.
Factory calibrated and with easy-to-use menu-driven software, the InfraRan specific vapour analyser enables non-technical personel make fast, accurate measurements with minimal training.
The InfraRan is truly portable - it weighs only 8.2kg and runs for up to eight hours on its internal rechargeable NiMH battery pack.
Mains power can also be used for convenience in the laboratory.
Internal data logging is provided for convenient recording of results.
The only consumables required are zero gas and particulate filters, so cost of ownership is kept to a minimum.
UK distributor for the InfraRan is Quantitech.
