Generation of mercury calibration gas
The MC-3000 generates a continuous stream of a mercury vapor loaded gas in order to check or calibrate mercury analysers.
An exactly adjustable carrier gas stream (normally air or nitrogen) is loaded with mercury in a first step.
In a second step the gas is supersaturated by cooling. Subsequently the excess mercury is condensed in a special cell to get exact saturation. The gas is then diluted, the dilution ratio is continuously adjustable in order to obtain concentrations within a specific range.
