A portable flame-ionisation detector that resolves a total hydrocarbon reading into its methane and non-methane fractions in the field, which is the split that an emissions report has to state and a single THC number cannot supply.
Key features
- Highly intergrated, without the need of support from external accessory connections.
- Requires no need for external power supply, the battery is both safe and long lasting, containing a battery capacity is about 19.2Ah.
- Heating tracing during the whole path, effectively reducing sample loss to ensure more accurate results.
- Aptional connecting devices, including computers, cell phone as well as tablets.
Applications
Built for emissions compliance and fenceline monitoring teams.
- portable methane/NMHC detection

What does this instrument measure, and who is it for?
It measures methane and non-methane hydrocarbon fractions in the field. It is built for emissions compliance and fenceline monitoring teams. It is designed for continuous, unattended operation in a monitoring shelter or cabinet, with periodic zero and span calibration.
What measurement principle does it use?
Flame ionisation, resolving a total hydrocarbon reading into methane and non-methane fractions in the field — the split an emissions report has to state and a single total cannot supply.
Which specifications are confirmed?
The manufacturer's published specification table lists eight parameters for this instrument, and every one of them is reproduced on this page. They include Dimensions at 413×251×348mm, Weight at About 10kg and Detection Limit at ≤ 0.1ppm. ConductScience transcribed them from the manufacturer's engineering documentation without alteration.
What should be confirmed before ordering?
Confirm siting and inlet configuration, zero and span gas supply, the calibration interval your reporting regime requires, and the data acquisition and reporting path. These are configured and quoted per installation, so raise anything unusual about the site during quote review rather than after delivery.
What else is needed to run it?
A zero air generator and a multi-point dilution calibrator. Every concentration this analyser reports is measured against its zero. A zero that is not actually zero is a systematic error in every number downstream of it, so the calibration gear is not an accessory — it is what makes the readings defensible.
How is it supplied?
This instrument is configured and quoted per installation rather than sold at a list price. Request a quote and we will confirm the configuration, the site requirements and the lead time before anything is ordered.
