FTC320 analyzer

with improved measurement characteristics for many tasks

FTC 320The FTC320 is the new generation of our thermal conductivity analyzers. With the new electronics, the measurement accuracy has been improved compared to the FTC300. The already low noise of our analyzers has been further reduced. This is particularly crucial for measurements in the trace range.
New measurement tasks can be realized with the FTC320. In particular, the possibility of cross-sensitivity compensation using external signals has been expanded. This is made possible by the larger program memory and significantly more computing power. A good example from the practical application is the use of the additional module for oxygen measurement. The increased computing power of the FTC320 allows cross-sensitivity compensation in real time.

For a more intuitive use, the operating menu has been slightly revised. As usual, data access is possible via an RS232 interface. The mounting dimensions as well as the analog interfaces (4-20mA, 0-10V and relays) stay the same compared to the FTC300. Those who are familiar with the FTC300 will also quickly get to work with the FTC320.

FTC320Ex
with approval Ex-Zone2 Ex II3G nR IIC T4 Gc

The FTC320Ex is an FTC320 with approval for Zone 2 according to ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU. The analyzers of the FTC320 series with the corresponding approval bear the marking:

II3G Ex nR IIC T4 Gc

The functionality, operation and measurement characteristics are the same as the FTC320. The conformity statement for the measuring concept manufacturer’s declaration was issued by TUV SUD on the 10.08.2020. The suitability of the housings used for the FTC320 product series for the Ex protection type „nR” (vapor-proof equipment) was proven by a fundamental test.

FTC320 with O2 module with additional oxygen measurement

sauerstoffAn optional add-on module for oxygen measurement extends the application range of the FTC320 to non-binary gas mixtures with oxygen content. The electrochemical cell has a long service life of 1 to 6 years. The cell can be replaced by the customer.Oxygen concentrations from 0-100 vol.% can be measured selectively. The measured concentration can be used for cross sensitivity compensation. The additional module is pneumatically connected to the gas output of the FTC320. The voltage supply, operation and all interfaces run via the FTC320. The measured oxygen concentration is shown on the display.
If required, adjustment can be made via the operating menu or via the RS232 interface of the FTC320. Due to an internal compensation of the pressure dependency, the oxygen content can be measured reliably even in case of pressure fluctuations.
