Portable NGC8206/NGC 8209 Natural Gas Chromatograph
Brand: ABB GroupWhen gas volumes are too low to justify a continuous on-line solution.
When the overall cost and maintenance of gas samplers becomes too high.
When your business evolves to require real-time information and avoid the accounting inefficiencies inherent with waiting for time-consuming lab analysis.
These situations and many others demand the on-site analysis capabilities of the portable NGC8206.
The portable NGC8206 provides precise, reliable, on-site measurement of natural gas samples in a compact, affordable package that is easy to operate and maintain.
When the spot sample needs to be run, the unit is already powered up and stable, eliminating the wait at the meter site.
The NGC8206 and NGC8209 measure C6+ or C9+ (back flushed) peak.
Users may input the results of a comprehensive lab analysis that reflects the split or ratio of C6 through C10 or C9 through C12 components.
This ratio can be used in subsequent analyses and energy calculations.
