AMP-Cherokee's easy-to-use STRATA™, a Microsoft Windows™ -based data acquisition and analysis system, is designed specifically for RATA’s,  compliance tests, and other instrumental stack testing methods.  It reads data from up to eight (8) gas analyzers or other sensors, and logs the data and time stamped date to an SQL database that is compatible with spreadsheets and word processors.

STRATA™ performs 40CFR60 Appendix A, Methods 3A, 6C, 7E, 10, and 25A (for bias corrected run averages), Appendix B, Performance Specifications for RATA calculations, and other instrumental methods.

Reports Corrected Data in Minutes
Get final results before you leave the job site. RATA or compliance test run averages are corrected for bias and transferred to an SQL database instantly after each run.

Saves Time - Save Money
Cuts cost 30%!  STRATA™ does most of your reporting for you.  Calibration and test run summaries can be printed on demand after each test is completed. Printed data and summaries provide the report Appendix. You may even do the written part on a word processor while STRATA™ is running.

Stack Testing Simplified
STRATA™ handles the details without error by telling you what valves to turn on, reporting calibration pass or fail, and reporting bias corrected run averages all at the click of a button. You may perform tests manually with software assistance or automatically using solenoid valves.

Performs RATA’s, compliance tests, other instrumental methods, and logging of data from gas analyzers and inputs such as temperature and flow devices.

STRATA™ guides you through the Calibration Error Test and System Bias Checks, instantly performing the calculations and reporting errors.  The tests may optionally be automated.

STRATA™ will operate solenoid valves to admit the gases.  Pass or fail for each analyzer is indicated as the analyzers stabilize.

STRATA™ corrects the results of each run for bias and instantly records them to an SQL database as each run is completed. 

STRATA™ provides you with the flexibility to work the way you want.  You may choose just the amount of automation you are comfortable with.

STRATA™ can handle instrumental methods and engineering tests, including logging of data from all kinds of inputs.

STRATA™ runs in the Microsoft Windows™ environment, so it is compatible with most personal computer applications.  You may use spreadsheets, word processors, and other applications while simultaneously running STRATA™.  A laptop or desktop PC is all that is required.
