QCBox-ATEX : a photoacoustic spectrometer dedicated to process monitoring
The QCBox-ATEX is specifically tailored to monitor On-line Processes in the chemical and petrochemical industries. The quality of the materials is of prime importance to those industries and defines the commercial value of the products. The detection of impurities, pollutants or corroding compounds is paramount in adjusting the process and optimizing reactions. The QCBox-ATEX allows for the detection of minute traces of any contaminating gases in any type of gas streams.
Our instruments are designed to combine performances and ease-of-use:
- Latest digital electronics to improve the signal quality
- Full range linear calibration (ppb – % range)
