The Synspec Alpha series are analyzers that measure volatile organic compounds in ambient air with an FID (flame ionization) or PID (photoionization) detector. The detector is selected according to the application; FID versions target methane and non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC), and PID versions target toxic components such as benzene, 1,3-butadiene, vinyl chloride, ethylene oxide and propylene oxide.

Depending on the version, the detection limit for methane ranges from 10 ppb to 1 ppm, and for benzene from 0.4 µg/m3 (0.15 vppb) to 20 vppb. The Alpha-115C FID model offers the lowest limits. The Delta model with PID detector for single-component (toluene) measurement is also offered with this family.

Alpha features

  • Methane and total non-methane hydrocarbons (TNMHC) by FID
  • Benzene, 1,3-butadiene, vinyl chloride, ethylene oxide/propylene oxide by PID
  • Detector, limit and range selection according to the application
  • Alpha-115C FID: detection limit at the 10 ppb level for methane
  • Delta model with PID detector for toluene measurement
  • Continuous, automatic measurement
