Process Gas Chromatographs
PGC5009 Fast PGC
The challenge
A relatively small shift in the cut point for any refinery product can
cost refiners millions in profits. In the absence of fast, accurate and
reproducible boiling point data, refinery product yields are not optimized and
more importantly, profits are lost.
The solution
The PGC5009 represents the best in process analytics for simulated
distillation analysis using fast temperature programmed process
chromatography. With a patented resistively heated column design and
rapid cooling system, the PGC5009 provides superior chromatography. The
results are proven: accurate and reproducible retention times and weight
percentage measurements required for boiling point curve calculation enabling
optimized refinery process control.
