Dedicated Analyzer for Hydrogen & Permanent Gas Analysis | 230 V
The Thermo Scientific™ TRACE™ 1610 Permanent Gas Analyzer is a turnkey, high-performance gas chromatography system engineered for precise quantification of hydrogen and permanent gases in industrial, laboratory, and process environments. The configuration H2PGA1602011-230 is a fully integrated system designed to analyze H₂, O₂, N₂, CO, CO₂, and hydrocarbons up to C₃, using a dual-channel GC platform equipped with two independent iConnect™ Thermal Conductivity Detectors (TCDs).
Built on the robust, modular TRACE™ 1610 GC platform, this analyzer arrives fully assembled, configured, and factory tested, complete with validated methods, plumbing schematics, and a comprehensive documentation package. It is optimized for continuous performance, maximum uptime, and ease of maintenance in demanding industrial gas monitoring operations.
System Overview & Analytical Workflow
Dual-Channel Analytical Configuration
-
Channel 1 (TCD 1)
- Dedicated to Hydrogen (H₂)
- Uses Argon (Ar) carrier gas for enhanced sensitivity
-
Channel 2 (TCD 2)
- Analyzes O₂, N₂, CO, CO₂, and hydrocarbons up to C₃
- Uses Helium (He) carrier gas
- Each TCD is independently controlled and recorded as separate channels for maximum analytical flexibility and regulatory compliance.
Turnkey System Integration
-
Fully configured with:
- Auxiliary valve oven
- Four packed columns
- Two 250 μL sample loops
- Three switching valves (Hastelloy C)
- Entire system is pre-plumbed, leak-tested, and validated before shipment.
