Atmospheric Pressure Gas Monitoring
Cirrus 2 offers the versatility of state-of-the-art Microvision 2 quadrupole mass spectrometry in a convenient bench-top configuration. Incorporating an Ethernet interface, Cirrus 2 systems may be operated from a local PC or connected directly into an Ethernet network hub or switch for remote operation.
Cirrus 2 systems are ideal for the on-line monitoring and analysis of gases and gas mixtures including trace contaminants in process gases; solvent vapors; hydrocarbons; atmospheric and inorganic gas species (including corrosives); freons and noble gases.
Gas compositions can be tracked over a wide dynamic range (ppb to percentage levels) with a speed of up to 250 data points per second. The heated silica capillary inlet ensures a rapid response to changes in gas composition.
Cirrus 2 systems are manufactured from quality, field proven materials, which maximize reliability and uptime. The systems are easy to install and operate and feature automatic start-up and shut-down routines as well as built-in vacuum and heater interlocking for system protection.
Particular consideration has been paid to ease of service and maintenance. Cirrus 2 has been designed to allow easy access to the vacuum system, pump and inlet components for preventative maintenance and the replacement of consumable items (ion source filaments, capillary etc.).
The Cirrus 2 system enables the
AutoChem II 2920
and
AutoChem 2950 HP
to function as multi-component microreactors. Cirrus 2 software includes Process Eye™ Professional which controls analyzer data collection and monitors real-time data and analyzer status. A Recipe wizard helps create and configure analysis conditions. The Micromeritics/Cirrus interface software runs inside Process Eye Professional and is accessed via its own menu. This interface enables the user to control the analyzer via recipes which can also be saved for future use. Micromeritics has included preset parameters in the software, enabling you to create Peak Jump recipes with just a few keystrokes. The interface allows the user to collect data automatically from the AutoChem, customize Peak Jump recipes, access standard operations, calibrate detectors, and scale the AutoChem sample thermocouple signal.
Data integration with AutoChem II 2920 and AutoChem 2950 HP
- MS data may be analyzed using the MIcromeritics Peak Editor that allows signal deconvoution (peak fitting), signal integration, and smoothing.
- The AutoChem software may be used to create MS calibrations and convert raw signals to quantitative analyses.
- Data may be used directly in AutoChem characterization reports: dispersion, active area, kinetics, crystallite size.
