Hydrocarbon Monitor APHA-380

The APHA-380 is an analyzer for measuring hydrocarbon in ambient air and other background gases, for air quality control as well as for variety of industrial applications. HORIBA’s state-of-the-art flame ionization detector(FID) with selective combustion enables high sensitivity and stable real-time continuous measurement.

Features

Ultimate Performance

  • Flame ionization detector with selective combustion provides excellent sensitivity, stability and robustness
  • Simultaneously measures THC, CH4 and NMHC
  • Continuous online measurement with fast response
  • Single detector eliminates zero drift
  • Wide measurement range with up to 5 ranges selectable, minimum 0-5 ppmC and maximum 0-100 ppmC
  • Enhanced Lower Detection Limit

User-Friendly Interface & Functionality

  • Durable 7-inch wide color touch screen LCD with intuitive interface and trend graph
  • Selectable response time (moving average value), and calculation method
  • User-configurable dilution ratio (e.g., industrial gas production, exhaust gas THC monitoring)
  • Dust filter accessible from the front panel for easy daily maintenance

          

Reduced Operational Expense & Maximum Uptime

  • Remote diagnostics allow fast and effective maintenance
  • Internal parts timer with alarm facilitates timely parts replacement, optimizing parts stock
  • High-quality, long lifetime parts for maximum uptime

Connected and Intelligent

  • Remote operation from various devices: PC, tablet or smartphone
  • ModbusTM TCP and RTU communication
  • USB flash drive for data storageConnected & Intelligent

*Standard specification is wired LAN connection. For wireless connection, separate device is required.

Module Design for Various Needs & Customizations

  • A gas measurement module can independently provide measurement results
  • Housing is customizable for stationary, wall mount, mobile or portable installations
  • Easy integration of multiple AP-380 measurement modules into air quality monitoring station or dilution continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS)

 

 

 

Environment-Friendly Design

  • Remote operation reduces emission from transportation, contributing to the reduction of carbon footprint
  • Approx. 10%* reduction in power consumption
  • Lightweight design. Weight reduced on approx.15%*
  • Long life parts for reducing environmental load

Hydrogen-Generator OPGU Series

         Hydrogen generator for FID   

  • Generates high-purity hydrogen gas by electrolysis of pure water 
  • Does not require sodium hydroxide solution
  • Compact design
