Capabilities

Detect more than 40 Toxic Gases Sampling points can be up to 400 feet (120 meters) from the system. There is a choice of universal analyser modules and/or pyrolyzer analyzers. Simplified replacement of Chemcassettes® and automated optics verification

System Overview

The LNF has three Vertex systems spread across the lab to reach it's more than 150 points. Vertex one and two are located in 1445S. Vertex three is located in 14C10. Quarter inch PTFE tubing is run to sample locations locations across the EECS and LNF to sample the working environment.
