In-Situ cross duct laser (TDLS) gas analyzer

LAS 5000XD

The In-Situ TDLS gas analyzer has been designed for meeting the requirements of a large range of CEMS and Process applications.

LAS 5000XD uses Tunable Diode Laser Spectroscopy (TDLS) and comes in various models for measuring parameters such as NH3 + H2O, HF, CO + CO2, O2, HCl + H2O, etc.
It combines robustness, fast response time (1 s) and high accuracy measurement in harsh environments (ready for Ex Zone II).

Key operator benefits of LAS 5000XD In-Situ laser gas analyzer:

  • No sampling system needed
  • No gas temperature influence
  • Gas matrix interference free
  • Calibration free measurement

Thanks to ClearPath, interference of relative humidity, O2 or CO2 is removed in purging areas.

    KEY FEATURES

  • New Embedded ClearPath functionality
  • Highly sensitive and selective measurement
  • High signal-to-noise ratio
  • No measurement drift
  • Response time 1 s
  • Large dynamic range from ppm to %
  • Real-time communication between Transmitter (Tx) and Receiver (Rx)
  • Robust, ready for Ex Zone II (certification to come)
    💡 CLEARPATH

  • Interference of relative humidity, O2 or CO2 is removed in purging areas.
    Operator’s benefits:

  • No need for N2 or dry air purge
  • High accuracy of O2 measurement
  • High accuracy of H2O measurement
  • High accuracy of CO2 measurement
    CUSTOMER BENEFITS

  • Low maintenance and cost of ownership
  • No need for N2 or dry air purge: Oil & dust free air instrument is enough
  • Process optimization leading to reduction of operating costs
