Why a Portable Multi-Gas IR Analyzer?


Endothermic Generator Diagnostics
The effectiveness of the catalyst is measured by the CH4 content. Less than 0.5%
is an indication of properly functioning catalyst. Higher concentrations indicate
the necessity for either conditioning or replacement
Measuring the level of CO in the carrier gas allows correction of the %Carbon
reading at the furnace
Heat Treat Furnaces - Conventional Endo Gas
Furnace atmosphere carbon potential (%C) can be verified

Measuring Carbon Monoxide (CO) allows adjustment of the COF/PF parameters to


fine tune the %Carbon calculation in the furnace.
Measuring Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) can show possible
problems (i.e. sooting, water leaks, air leaks, and radiant tube leaks)

Too much free methane (CH4) could be an early indication of a furnace problem

Heat Treat Furnaces - Nitrogen/Methanol Endo Gas


The Carbon Monoxide (CO) level in the furnace atmosphere indicates the
effectiveness of the cracking of the methanol
Furnace atmosphere carbon potential (%C) can be verified
Measuring Carbon Monoxide (CO) allows adjustment of the COF/PF parameters to
fine tune the %Carbon calculation in the furnace

Measuring Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) can show possible
problems (i.e. sooting, water leaks, air leaks, and radiant tube leaks)

Nitriding/FNC Applications
Nitriding Potential (KN) calculated using H2 sensor
Used to address single and multi-stage nitriding applications where precision
measurement is required for controlling gas flows to get specific case and white
layer requirements addressing AMS 2759/12 requirements
Carbon activity (KC) calculated for FNC applications using gas composition from
CO or endothermic gas flows and H2 present
