Options

The Analog Trending Module provides 4 - 20 mA analog outputs, with 8 separate channels. User-scalable settings allow custom range input. With the unique Stream Adaptive Trending feature you can set a different scale range for each stream, allowing trending of streams with different levels of impurities while a high level of accuracy from the analog output is maintained.

The Gas Sampling System is an automated sampling system which can be custom configured with up to 14 streams plus a dedicated calibration gas stream. The system is controlled by the same simple interface and control program as the rest of the instrument, and is capable of autonomous sequencing of all available streams.

Optional flowmeter panels allow easy monitoring of all critical system flows. Flowmeter panels can also be added to monitor all sample input streams when the instrument is equipped with the Gas Sampling System.
