What does the SRS
Universal Gas Analyzer do?
The Universal Gas Analyzer (UGA) characterizes the
components of a gas mixture which is at, or below,
atmospheric pressure. The UGA can identify the
different constituent molecular species in the gas,
their relative abundances and track this information
in real time. All in a stand alone, easy to use, portable
unit connected via ethernet LAN to a computer.
The UGA samples your gas using a long thin capillary
allowing only a very small amount of the gas into the
unit. The pressure is further reduced by pumping
through a pinhole until a near vacuum is achieved. A
quadrupole mass spectrometer then analyzes the
sample providing partial pressure vs mass data. Each
mass corresponds to a particular gas molecule such Applications include
as carbon monoxide, methane, water vapor, etc.
