For measurement of binary gas mixtures AMS offers the Thermal Conductivity Analyser TCD 200 TG.
The measuring principle of Thermal Conductivity uses the different thermal conductivity of gases. The gas analysis through thermal conductivity for the measurement of gas components is a common method since the early 20th. century.
Typical applications are the measurement of:
- Hydrogen in Nitrogen
- Hydrogen in Helium
- Argon in Nitrogen or Oxygen
The main advantage of the Thermal Conductivity Analyser TCD 200 TG is the speed of the measurement. Due to the extremely low thermal mass of the sensor, T-90 Times of less than 10 Seconds at a gas flow of 50 Nl/H can be reached.
