FTC300

The FTC 300 is a ver­sa­ti­le and high-pre­cis­i­on gas ana­ly­sis sys­tem based on the prin­ci­ple of ther­mal con­duc­ti­vi­ty mea­su­re­ment (TCD). It enables relia­ble and accu­ra­te mea­su­re­ments of a wide ran­ge of gas com­pon­ents and is the­r­e­fo­re ide­al for appli­ca­ti­ons in pro­cess mea­su­re­ment tech­no­lo­gy, bio­gas plants and other indus­tri­al are­as.

The FTC 300 is the ide­al solu­ti­on for pre­cise gas ana­ly­sis in deman­ding indus­tri­al appli­ca­ti­ons. Its out­stan­ding ther­mal con­duc­ti­vi­ty tech­no­lo­gy (TCD) enables relia­ble moni­to­ring and con­trol of pro­ces­ses in bio­gas plants, the che­mi­cal indus­try and in envi­ron­men­tal tech­no­lo­gy. Thanks to its fle­xi­ble mea­su­ring ran­ges and mul­ti-gas func­tion, the FTC 300 is pre­desti­ned for com­plex tasks such as the qua­li­ty assu­rance of pro­cess gases, the opti­miza­ti­on of metha­ne yield in bio­gas plants or the ana­ly­sis of H₂S for engi­ne and cata­lyst pro­tec­tion.

  • Multi-gas mode: Simultaneous mea­su­re­ment of seve­ral gases such as CH₄, CO₂, H₂ and O₂.
  • High pre­cis­i­on: Measuring ran­ge up to 0.5 %, per­fect for sen­si­ti­ve appli­ca­ti­ons.
  • Long-term sta­bi­li­ty: Minimal main­ten­an­ce, ide­al for con­ti­nuous mea­su­re­ments.
  • Simple ope­ra­ti­on: Intuitive touch dis­play for quick adjus­t­ments and data eva­lua­ti­on.
  • Robustness: Can be used even under chal­len­ging con­di­ti­ons.
  • Flexible mea­su­re­ment opti­ons: Configuration to spe­ci­fic cus­to­mer requi­re­ments pos­si­ble.

The FTC 300 can be used fle­xi­bly and covers a wide ran­ge of appli­ca­ti­ons:

  • Biogas plants: Efficient pro­cess con­trol and pre­cise metha­ne and CO₂ ana­ly­sis.
  • Chemical indus­try: Ensuring pro­duct qua­li­ty and redu­cing fail­ures.
  • Environmental tech­no­lo­gy: moni­to­ring emis­si­ons and pro­tec­ting the envi­ron­ment.
  • Energy indus­try: Optimization of power-to-gas plants and CO₂ cap­tu­re pro­ces­ses.
  • Research and deve­lo­p­ment: Precise data for ana­ly­ti­cal stu­dies and inno­va­tions.
  • Measurement prin­ci­ple: Thermal con­duc­ti­vi­ty mea­su­re­ment (TCD)

Advantages

Precision through ther­mal con­duc­ti­vi­ty mea­su­re­ment

The TCD tech­no­lo­gy (Thermal Conductivity Detector) uses the dif­fe­rent ther­mal con­duc­ti­vi­ties of gases to deter­mi­ne exact con­cen­tra­ti­on values. With an accu­ra­cy of up to 0.5 % at the start of the mea­su­ring ran­ge, the tech­no­lo­gy deli­vers relia­ble results even at the lowest con­cen­tra­ti­ons.

Durability and low main­ten­an­ce cos­ts

Thanks to the short warm-up time of just 5 minu­tes, the gas ana­ly­zer is quick­ly rea­dy for ope­ra­ti­on and rea­ches its full spe­ci­fi­ca­ti­on after 30 minu­tes. This means you can inte­gra­te the device into your pro­ces­ses at short noti­ce and car­ry out pre­cise mea­su­re­ments imme­dia­te­ly – wit­hout long wai­ting times.

Versatile appli­ca­ti­on pos­si­bi­li­ties

Thanks to its fle­xi­bi­li­ty, the TCD tech­no­lo­gy can mea­su­re a varie­ty of gases such as H₂, CH₄, CO₂ and O₂. The mul­ti-gas mode allows mul­ti­ple gases to be ana­ly­zed simul­ta­neous­ly, making it per­fect for bio­gas plants, the ener­gy sec­tor and other indus­tries. This ver­sa­ti­li­ty saves time and increa­ses effi­ci­en­cy.

FAQ

Which gases is the FTC 300 sui­ta­ble for?

The FTC 300 mea­su­res a varie­ty of gases such as H₂, CH₄, CO₂, O₂ and others. Its fle­xi­bi­li­ty makes it ide­al for appli­ca­ti­ons in bio­gas, che­mi­cal and envi­ron­men­tal tech­no­lo­gy.

How does mea­su­re­ment with TCD tech­no­lo­gy work?

The device uses dif­fe­ren­ces in the ther­mal con­duc­ti­vi­ty of the gases. These dif­fe­ren­ces are detec­ted by a sen­sor, ana­ly­zed and con­ver­ted into exact con­cen­tra­ti­on values.

Can the FTC 300 mea­su­re seve­ral gases at the same time?

Yes, thanks to the mul­ti-gas mode, seve­ral gases can be ana­ly­zed simul­ta­neous­ly. This increa­ses effi­ci­en­cy and saves time in com­plex appli­ca­ti­ons.

Does the FTC 300 requi­re a lot of main­ten­an­ce?

No, the FTC 300 is cha­rac­te­ri­zed by its low main­ten­an­ce requi­re­ments. Its robust design ensu­res long-term sta­ble per­for­mance.

What inter­faces does the FTC 300 offer?

The Gas Analyzer 210 O₂ para­ma­gne­tic is pri­ma­ri­ly used for explo­si­on safe­ty in indus­tries such as che­mi­cals and recy­cling. By con­ti­nuous­ly moni­to­ring the oxy­gen level, you can ensu­re that the con­cen­tra­ti­on does not rise into the dan­ge­rous ran­ge that leads to explo­si­ve mix­tures. Real-time moni­to­ring enables you to detect cri­ti­cal thres­hold values at an ear­ly stage and take coun­ter­me­a­su­res in good time.
