VIG Model-210 Heated Methane/Ethane/NonMethane-Ethane
Total Hydrocarbon Analyzer (NMHC)










The VIG Industries, Inc. Model-210 is a microprocessor based, oven heated methane /ethane/nonmethane-ethane/total hydrocarbon gas analyzer designed for high accuracy, sensitivity and stability. The Model-210 uses two independent flame ionization detectors (FIDs), one to measure total hydrocarbons and the second coupled with a GC Column for the separation of the methane, ethane and nonmethane-ethane components. A sample is fed to the analyzer via an internal heated pump to the first FID for a real time total hydrocarbon reading. A portion of the sample is trapped and pushed through a column to separate the methane and ethane components and then to the second FID. Any remaining sample in the column is back flushed through the column to obtain the nonmethane-ethane components. All components that come in contact with the sample through analysis are maintained in a temperature-controlled oven to prevent condensation, and to provide repeatable, reliable performance in the analysis of a wide variety of hydrocarbon concentrations in gaseous mixtures or in ambient air.


The VIG Model 210 THC/Methane/Ethane analyzer employs two heated flame ionization detectors. One detector measures total hydrocarbons continuously; the second detector is coupled to a GC column for the separation of the methane, ethane and non-methane-ethane components. A sample is injected into the column and the methane component passes through to the detector; the ethane component then follows through to the detector for analysis. The remaining sample is then back flushed through the column and to the detector to obtain the non-methane/ethane portion of the sample. Sample loop duration is approximately 3 minutes.
