All Danielchromatographs share a common operationaltechnology so plant and laboratory personnel workon the same operating system.Our advanced microprocessor-based electronicsand software eliminate the need for expensiveportable service panels and strip chart recorders.Daniel chromatographs simply require alaptop/PC for diagnostics at the chromatograph, inthe control room, or offsite, to control all functions(optional keypad available). Advanced zoom fea-tures and chromatogram overlay provide resolutionfor advanced diagnostics and allow troubleshootingfrom any location. Technicians can recall currentand historical chromatogram overlays for easycomparison.Todays trend toward downsizing means instru-ment technicians have more to do, and less time todo it. Instrumentation has to be more reliable andeasier to use than ever before. Daniel gas chro-matographs are your best choice.Higher reliability and lower maintenanceReady to use, right out of the boxDaniel has produced the highest quality chro-matographs for decades. Quality control is the keyto our success...and the reason for our chro-matographs reputation for ease-of-use, accuracyand dependability.Our in-house environmental testing is the mostthorough in the industry. Daniel gas chromato-graphs must endure our walk-in environmental testchambers cycling between 0 and 130F for up to72 hours.The result? Out-of-box start-up and years of reli-able operation.The best combination of advanced technologyand rugged instrumentation to help you makethe most of your existing manpowerSuperior technology and service life To meet Daniels higher performance standards, our GC technology is developed in-house GC valves 5 million injections between rebuilds Micro-packed columns improve baseline sep-aration, reduce carrier consumption, faster analysis Advanced applications with single or dual detectors Software and electronics virtually unlimited chromatogram storage and diagnostic tools withlaptop/PC Superior transient protection in controller Improved Modbus communications2Headquartered in Houston a strategic loca-tion for the extensive Gulf Coast hydrocar-bon process industry Daniel also manufac-tures in Scotland and supplies field supportfrom offices in Canada, Singapore, and theMiddle East, and has agents and representa-tives in over fifty countries.Model 575 - For transportable, on-line and laboratory useThe Danalyzer Gas Chromatograph is packaged in alaboratory version with an integral 2350 controller.Laptop interface makes this versatile GC ideal for usein the lab or in the field.Laptop/PC Based Diagnostics3Simplified troubleshooting Zoom functions allow troubleshooting with resolution to 25 milliseconds for any stored chromatogram Timed events, peak integration parameters, and chromatograms presented on one screen for editing High resolution zoom to individual data-base points displayed in relation to base lineChromatogram overlays for trouble-shooting and calibration Last calibration/initial calibration overlay Virtually unlimited possibilities for advanced troubleshooting and analysis Simplifies troubleshooting for inexperienced techniciansPowerful and flexible Last run, current run, last calibration chromatogram stored in GC Extensive memory to store and recall historical chromatograms in PC Fixed time or auto slope detection for peak integration Hot-key shortcuts to raw data, analysis results, and other data directlyfrom chromatogram screen Ticks downward for timed events, ticks upward for peak integration4Daniel ultra-long-life valves and micro-packed columns are key to superior chroma-tography, and higher reliability.Daniel 6-port and 8-port valves, unique to the GC market, have greatly extend-ed service life. This comes from minimum internal movement about 1/10,000inch, which also contributes to rapid operation. Flow paths for the sample arearranged so internal moving parts never contact the sample flow. As a result,abrasive mechanical wear on machined valve surfaces is eliminated. Thisunique double diaphragm design eliminates all springs, O-rings, and the needfor lubrication.Chromatograph ValvesMicro-packed columnsSince 1980, Daniel has beenrefining and improving its processfor creating micro-packed columns.Daniel micro-packed columnsoffer a superior combination of thefeatures found in both capillary andconventional packed columns. Theresult is improved chromatographywith extended column life sever-al years in most applications with-out measurable degradation orbleed. Daniel micro-packedcolumns produce sharper peaks forimproved component separation,short analysis time, and very lowcarrier-gas consumption.Daniel Process GCs incorporate three types of detectors: TCD (Thermal Conductivity Detector) FID (Flame Ionization Detector) FPD (Flame Photometric Detector)Each type of detector is mounted in a precision assembly which maintains uni-form flow paths to minimize dead volume. Single or dual detector TCDs aregenerally used for analyzing higher concentrations, FIDs for trace concentra-tions of hydrocarbons, and FPDs for trace sulphur analysis.The TCD used will tolerate loss of carrier for extended time periods withoutdamage.DetectorsTCD (Thermal Conductivity Detector) FID (Flame Ionization Detector)FPD (Flame Photometric Detector)2350 Controller -Advanced SoftwareThe ability to monitor dualdetectors simultaneouslyopens up new applicationswith greater speed.Applications such as naturalgas extended analysis (C1+C9 in five minutes) or natur-al gas with helium are all now possible. The primary benefit is faster analysistimes for many on-line applications.Recorders are not necessary; laptops can be used as the primary interface toallow for almost unlimited chromatogram storage and retrieval. Optional print-ers can be serial or the less-expensive, easier-to-install parallel type.Daniel chromatograph valves can be operated over 5 million times withoutmaintenance in most process applications reliability five to twenty times thestated reliability of competitive valves in similar service! For most applications,chromatograph valves are warranteed for life.The inset photo shows the micro screeninserted at each end of a column to retainuniform packing in columns up to 9 feetlong.Photo courtesy of Finnigan Corp.Superior Technology2350 Chromatograph ControllerUsed with all Daniel GCs andavailable in various mounting con-figurations as noted below.Models 500 and 1000 are the same basicDanalyzer technology.Applicationsparallel printer port.
