IONICON PTR-TOF-MS - Trace VOC Analyzer - PTR-TOF 1000

IONICON PTR-TOF-MS - Trace VOC Analyzer

Sensitivity: > 200 cps/ppbv

Resolution: > 1500

LoD: < 10 pptv

Overview

Enter into the world of PTR-TOFMS with IONICON’s PTR-TOF 1000 and benefit from all the advantages only powerful time of flight based solutions offer:

  • the entire mass range in split-seconds - no selection of masses - no waiting
  • fast and sensitive for complex VOC mixtures and
  • high mass resolution for better separation and identification.

More than a hundred PTR-TOF 1000 installations all over the planet are proof of its popularity and reliability. The PTR-TOF 1000 is the first choice for various international research campaigns but especially for 24/7 industrial monitoring or mobile air quality lab applications. It comes with a fully integrated IONICON data acquisition and data treatment software suite and can optionally be configured as automated VOC monitor with a customized substances identification library.

The PTR-TOF 1000 is our most affordable time PTR-TOF trace gas analyzer. Don't settle for anything less advanced, robust and reliable!

But wait, the PTR-TOF 1000 is just the beginning: expect up to 10x higher sensitivity with the PTR-TOF 1000 ultra.

Industrial Applications

Saving you money by monitoring and controlling production processes, emissions and throughput, that's our aim. See some examples of how we do this.

Amine Emission Monitoring in CCS

Monitoring Amine Emissions using the IONICON PTR-TOF analyzer

The IONICON PTR-TOF analyzer measures emissions of amines and amine degradation products in real-time down to ppt levels.

Industrial Safety

Real-Time Detection of Hazardous Volatile Compounds with Mobile PTR-TOF

PTR-TOF, mounted on a mobile platform, is a versatile tool for real-time detection of toxic industrial compounds (TICs) emissions at sub-ppb levels.

Fenceline Monitoring

PTR-TOF real-time air quality monitoring around chemical plants

Oil & gas industry, refineries and chemical plants, have the risk of emitting pollutants into the environment. Our solutions mitigate this risk for public health concerns and ensure regulatory compliance.
