MB3000-CH90 features

The MB3000-CH90 Laboratory Gas Analyzer is

designed to offer a unique combination of sensitivity, robustness and simplicity. An innovative and

unique interferometer design is at the core of the

instrument. This latest advancement in interferometer technology is extremely modular and compact

and is combined with a patented 24-bit sampling

algorithm for optimal dynamic range. The permanently aligned optics with a Jacquinot stop in the

interferometer output beam ensure an accurate

and stable line shape as well as wavelength and

resolution stability.

As result, the MB3000-CH90 offers an outstanding

spectroscopic performance enabling ppb level gas

analyzes with a standard DTGS detector. In addition,

the analyzer can also be fitted with an optional and

hot-swappable liquid nitrogen-cooled MCT detector

for applications requiring higher sensitivity or

measurement speed.

While the exceptional stability of the double-pivot

interferometer principle ensures reproducible data,

the permanently aligned optics do not require

re-alignment and the interferometer has a lifetime

warranty. The MB3000-CH90 is also an instrument

with minimal cost-of-ownership: the pre-aligned

source module with electronic stabilization does

not require replacement for 10 years, and the diode

laser-based metrology module does not require any

scheduled maintenance. These unique features are

combined with an extensive instrument built-in

health monitoring program.

The MB3000-CH90 gas analyzer provides fast and accurate FT-IR critical gas measurements down to ppb levels in a user-friendly environment. 

Overview

This high performance and maintenance-free spectrometer is typically used in R&D or QA/QC laboratories for checking gas purity, controlling gas mixing and composition or performing unknown components speciation.

The heated gas cell can be easily swapped and replaced with other sampling accessories, making the MB3000-CH90 a flexible and versatile tool for any laboratory.

The MB3000-CH90 provides fast and accurate gas measurements in a user-friendly environment. The Horizon software enables the use of commercial or personalized spectral libraries for unknown gas identification and the heatable gas cell can be tuned for either long or short pathlength applications.

ABB‘s tight manufacturing tolerances and specifications for analyzer-to-analyzer matching permit laboratory development of calibrations which are routinely transferred to ABB process instruments.

Data

Typical applications of the MB3000-CH90 are found in both R&D and QA/QC laboratories, for example checking gas purity, controlling gas mixing and composition or performing unknown components specification. The MB3000-CH90 is also used for fast off-line analysis of grab samples obtained from airborne or process gases.

This latest advancement in interferometer technology is extremely modular and compact and is combined with a patented 24-bit sampling algorithm for optimal dynamic range. The permanently aligned optics with a Jacquinot stop in the interferometer output beam ensure an accurate and stable line shape as well as wavelength and resolution stability.

As result, the MB3000-CH90 offers an outstanding spectroscopic performance enabling ppb level gas analyzes with a standard DTGS detector. In addition, the analyzer can also be fitted with an optional and hot-swappable liquid nitrogen-cooled MCT detector for applications requiring higher sensitivity or measurement speed.

MBGAS-3000CH features

The MBGAS-3000CH is designed for continuous

24/7 operation without need for operator intervention.

A comprehensive health monitoring program

runs continuously in the background to ensure that

all measurements are correct at any time. Efficient

optics of the MBGAS-3000CH provide an excellent

signal-to-noise performance, so that the detector

does not require cooling for extra-sensitivity.

This greatly enhances the reliability and simplicity

of the FT-IR measurement compared with process

analyzers that require liquid nitrogen-cooled or

Stirling-cooled detectors. Furthermore, all optical

components are non-hygroscopic therefore avoiding moisture damage, eliminating the need for

desiccant and reducing maintenance requirements.

Overview

Dedicated Solution for Monitoring Gases 

This instrument can easily be integrated into a continuous emission monitoring solution.

Based on Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) technology, the MBGAS-3000 Analyzer provides exceptional stability, sensitivity, and photometric accuracy.

• Based on hot/wet sample extraction. No sample treatment other than dust filtering required. 

Maintain sample integrity with no need for sample dilution.

[NOTE: Can be interfaced with existing dry sample systems.]

• High-end analytical performance that complies with emission monitoring regulations. 

Pre-defined analysis for combustion monitoring processes with focus on waste incineration, process, and power emissions.

• Minimum commissioning time – design target for single-point calibration per gas range – including water. Flexible, with the multi-range support capabilities.

• Low maintenance costs thanks to the long-lasting IR source, field serviceable modules, and maintenance-free interferometer.

• Fast response time due to the long and short path cell low-volume design.

• Highly reliable analyzer with state-of-the-art embedded software implementation.

• Simplified integration: Wall or 19” rack mount (rack mount may require adjustment).

• Modular design for in-field serviceability.

• Minimal commissioning and maintenance.

• Robust software design for very high reliability.

• Pre-defined multi-component analysis for emission monitoring.

• Designed to meet performance requirements in compliance with standard EN15267-3:2008-3.

• Unit reports calibrated engineering values with embedded processing. 

StepUp is program of ABB’s for upgrading

older process control equipment to the

latest Advant OCS solutions at particularly

favorable terms. The theme of the program

varies from time to time; this time the turn

has come to users of MasterPiece 200⁄1

controllers to upgrade to the latest Advant

Controller 400 series process controllers, at

substantially reduced prices.

You gain performance; Count on three to

five times the speed of your current

machine(s) (vs. Advant Controller 450) and

multiple amounts of more memory.

Higher processing speed and more

memory means more work done faster, as

well as more space for trend data storage.

You gain functionality; Advant Controller

400 series offers a number of important

functional improvements, e.g.:

• Support for a number of new, popular

communication protocols, e.g. Advant

Fieldbus 100, Profibus DP, LONWorks

and Allen-Bradley’s DF1.
