Setting a New Baseline

Monday, July 15, 2024

The next generation of Continuous Hydrocarbon Analyzers boasts reliable performance, streamlined operation and a user-friendly interface.

Companies rely on precision gas analysis to ensure bulk gases are not contaminated and to understand well logging hydrocarbon levels. These entities require their testing instruments to be accurate, lower detection limits and seamlessly integrate into their existing data systems. The industry-leading AMETEK MOCON line of BASELINE® precision gas analyzers does all that and more.

The BASELINE series encompasses several gas-detecting technologies, including our new line of Continuous Hydrocarbon Analyzers (CHA). We’re excited to launch the next generation of CHAs, which includes a Total Hydrocarbon Analyzer, Methane/Non-Methane Analyzer and Total Carbon Analyzer. The new CHA series incorporates the powerful BASELINE technology customers have relied on for years with an all-new modern interface, added connectivity features and simplified troubleshooting.

Accurate, Reliable and Rugged – That’s BASELINE.

All BASELINE CHA instruments are powered by a Flame Ionization Detector (FID), which detects gases as they’re ionized and reports the results as a concentration. This enables detection limits below 10 parts per billion (ppb). Our FID Detectors have a unique design and are manufactured at our factory in Minnesota. With our first-hand expertise in FID detection, you can be confident in obtaining and storing reliable data. In addition to providing accurate results, BASELINE instruments also feature a durable, compact enclosure with a small footprint that enables easy incorporation into standard mounting racks.

Designed to Reduce Downtime

If your business relies on hydrocarbon analysis, you know even an hour of instrument downtime can mean a significant financial loss. Our customers can trust BASELINE instruments for continuous operation, and our next-generation CHA Series incorporates additional features to maximize your uptime. We’ve overhauled our display for intuitive operation, which means new users require less time for training and can focus more on doing.

New operational features include easy navigation via a modern menu and the ability to view historical data while the instrument continues to take measurements. Comprehensive diagnostics make troubleshooting a breeze, and easy-to-read display features such as real-time graphing let you immediately identify any problems.
