RGA-5 Analytical Test Cart (RGA-5/ATC)
The RGA-5 Analytical Test Cart (RGA-5/ATC) is a mobile,
cleanroom-compatible system developed and field tested by
certified professionals at QAM. The cart is engineered for
fast and cost-effective system testing for H2, CO, CO2,
CH4 and non-methane hydrocarbons in single-digit parts per
billion (ppb) ranges. In both process and non-process gas
systems, the cart's advanced, self-contained mobile design
allows it to be disconnected and moved to different test
points without purge gas interruption, sample line contamination,
or power interruption.

Typical Applications |
 |
- Gas manufacturing plant quality
control
- Gas distribution system monitoring
- Purifier, valve and other
components testing
- Ultra-pure gas research
- Truck load certification
|
| Reasons to Own
a RGA-5/ATC |
- The cart is completely mobile,
equipped with all necessary on-board gases for calibration
and operation.
- It eliminates power and purge
gas interruption as well as sample line contamination.
- It provides in situ testing
of inert and process gas systems anywhere in the
facility, including the cleanroom at the process
tool.
- The patent pending manifold
design allows one sample to be tested while another
is being prepared.
- It provides valuable trend
analysis, using customized LabView data acquisition
software.
- It automatically integrates,
compares and provides complete, computerized reports
from test data within minutes.
- It can download test data
information, referring to a remote database for
review and analysis.
- It helps your facility meet
the strict quality control standards required for
ISO 9000 certification.
- It is cleanroom-compatible,
constructed with polished stainless steel.
- Analyzer zero and span can
be performed automatically.
- It features a simple, low-maintenance
design.

A New Standard
for Convenience and Cost-Effectiveness
Mobile and completely self-contained, the RGA-5/ATC can
be moved and connected to any test point in your system,
which offers an attractive, economical approach
to testing and trouble-shooting for impurities in bulk gas
streams wherever they occur – quickly and efficiently.
The cart incorporates a patent-pending manifold
system that increases both the speed and cost-efficiency
of operations by allowing purging of contamination from
sample lines at the analyzer prior to testing. For increased
productivity, the manifold also supports testing one sample
point while preparing for the next. The RGA-5/ATC is capable
of measuring impurities such as H2, CO, CO2 CH4 and non-methane
hydrocarbons in nitrogen, argon, helium, hydrogen and oxygen
gas streams, from percent to single ppb concentrations.
The cart's high sensitivity and fast response time are suitable
for a variety of applications including gas manufacturing
plant quality control, gas distribution system monitoring,
component testing (purifiers, valves etc.), ultra-pure gas
research, truck load certification, and in situ testing
at process tools.
