Abstract |
A small portable infrared gas analyser for analysis of a wide variety of gases and vapours is described. For acrylonitrile monitoring, it can be incorporated into a fixed-station, multi-point monitoring system which sequentially measures the acrylonitrile concentration at 12 separate locations up to 400ft (120m) from the instruments and records them on a strip chart. The system requires very little operator attendance and no routine maintenance or expendable supplies. It can be equipped with alarms to warn of high concentration levels. Other applications are presented. |
