AtLAS-900 in Situ TDLAS Analysator

AtLAS-900 is a laser gas analyser for industrial on line applications, able to measure a great number of gas in situ (cross-stack).

The TDLAS technology provide an incredibly fast response time, small drift and measure virtually free from interferences of other gases.

Optimized for heavy industrial applications and available for safe or Hazardous area applications (ATEX Zone 1 / Zone 21), AtLAS-900 features a very robust design and come with all the needed accessories for an easy installation and periodical calibration.

ATEX Certificate Number CML 18 ATEX 1400X

SIL 2

SIL 2 [ pending ]

[Note 1]

Minimum optical path depends on gas to be measured and range. Contact ADEV

[Note 2]

For eventual live compensations of temperature, pressure and O2 impurities inside purging Nitrogen, if used.

[Note 3]

For process temperature > 500°C water cooling system is required. Contact ADEV.

[Note 4]

Instrument air cannot be used as purging gas in case the gas to be measured is O2 and process gas temperature is < 400°C

[Note 5]

The precise flow rate of purging gas cannot be predetermined. It depends on several factors just like pressure and flow rate of sample gas, dust amount           and type.

Minimum suggested:

- for pants working in positive pressure: 500 l/h

- for pants working in positive pressure: 350 l/h

Measuring Principle

TDLAS (Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy) mainly uses the character that Tunable laser’s narrow band and wavelength change with the current. So, by precisely modulating the current of tunable laser, it can scan a certain absorption peak of detected gas (no absorption of background gas).

And after obtaining the second harmonics absorbed by detected gas, it finally works out the concentration of detected gas by using this second harmonics and line-width.

The TDLAS technology has been developed into a kind of high sensitivity, high resolution, fast response time and high selectivity of gas detection technology, widely used in industrial process monitoring control.

By using a tunable semiconductor laser, AtLAS-900 scans the specific absorption line of the measured gas (no background gas) to get the second harmonic of the gas. Through processing and analyzing the second harmonic and the broadening information of the gas, the concentration of the gas is obtained.
