Flexible automated solutions for dynamically blending gases to achieve high ppm to % concentration gas mixtures.
Challenge: KIN-TEK Analytical, Inc. (KIN-TEK) provides trace gas calibration solutions to the gas analyzer, sensor, and detector industry using permeation tubes and gas standard generators. Permeation tubes are a proven, accurate, and traceable solution for creating trace concentration ranges (ppm to pptr) since the pure permeating gas can be accurately diluted to create lower concentrations. However, generating percent (%) concentration targets are beyond the reach of typical permeation devices and it would take multiple devices and equipment to achieve 5% or higher concentrations. How to Calibrate in % Level Concentrations…
Solution: To bridge the gap between permeation tube concentration capabilities and percentage level concentrations, KIN-TEK’s FlexMixer™ Multi-Gas Blending System provides a flexible automated solution for dynamically blending gases to achieve high ppm to % concentration gas mixtures.
The FlexMixer™ Multi-Gas Blending System dynamically blend source gases creating an easily controlled, accurate, and traceable gas mixture that can be automated for multi-point flow generation and delivered in real time.
