The GasMix™ and LiqMix™ lines are AlyTech’s innovative automated systems designed to mix or dilute vaporized gases and liquids to create customized gas mixtures on-site, suited to specific laboratory needs and applications such as calibration gas standards or synthetic atmospheres. These versatile solutions are available in compact, benchtop, rack-mounted or portable formats.
The Hurricane Dynamic Gas Mixer is the most powerful system in the GasMix™ family.
This gas mixer/diluter can automatically prepare and distribute complex gases to virtually any type of analytical instrument, reactor or sensor.
A versatile tool to create extremely complex gas mixtures thanks to its ability to Dilute – Mix up to 16 gases simultaneously.
The operating principle is based on the dynamic mixing of 5-16 standard gases (custom systems for up to 20 gases are possible). No manual calculations are necessary: the software automatically calculates the dilution and span gas flow rates, based on the desired concentration, even for very complex mixtures. Regular sequences can be saved and recalled at any time. The Hurricane can be controlled remotely and/or can be started via the start command of an analyzer. An audit trail function ensures full traceability of the operations performed.
Key benefits:
-
Unique on the market Fully automatic mixing system for up to 16 gases simultaneously
