Application Highlights• A Flame Ionization Detector (FID) to detect the C1
through C12 n-paraffins to a lower detection limit of1 ppm, except for trace peaks eluting on the tail of amajor component.
• A Thermal Conductivity Detector (TCD) to detect aircomposite, carbon dioxide, C1 through C5 paraffins withan initial C6+ composite backflush to detector.
• System configured to meet Gas Processors AssociationMethods 2177, 2261, 2186, and 2286.
• Approximate analysis time is 30 minutes.
Optional Configurations• Detailed hydrocarbon analysis of extended natural gas
• TCD/FID/FPD or TCD/FID/SCD for extended naturalgas with trace sulfur analysis
• TCD/TCD/FID for extended natural gas with helium orhydrogen
