Fast Response and Compact Size FTIR Analyzer for the Simultaneous Measurement of Multiple Components of Engine Exhaust Gas

FTX-ONE-CS

Offers a 5Hz sampling rate and simultaneously measure the concentrations of multiple components including NH_3, CH₄ and CO₂, from (engine) direct exhaust gas using the Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) method in combination with multivariate analysis algorithm.

FTX-ONE-RS

FTX-ONE-RS is the rack type measurement system combined detector of FTX-ONE-CS and THC / O₂ detector. The remote EGR measurement unit is available as an option.

Applications

Latest Regulations
・Engine and Vehicle Development for Euro 7*: For R & D applications in anticipation of the EU's next LDV regulation (measurement of NH₃, N₂O, etc.)
・Measurement for EU Latest Regulation: Complaint to NH₃ concentration regulation certification under EU HDV regulation (Euro VI) and NRMM regulation (Stage V).

Evaluation of Catalyst and Fuel
Evaluation of aftertreatment systems such as urea SCR, gasoline three-way catalyst, and bioethanol fuel.

Features

Fast Response
The world's smallest high performance optical cell* realizes a fast response time of about 1.5 seconds** even for NH3, which is difficult to measure.

Low Sampling Flow Rate
Achieves low sampling flow rate sampling with the world's smallest high-performance optical cell* and enables measurement without affecting engine combustion or catalyst performance.

* According to our research in May 2018 ** Response speed T_10-90 is about 1.5 sec on the calibration line

Compact Design (FTX-ONE-CS)
Approx. 1/2 the installation area and weight.* Improved freedom of layout and maintainability in the lab.

* At the size of the footprint

Fuel Consumption and A/F (FTX-ONE-RS)
Simultaneous measurement of THC and O₂ enables correlation evaluation of fuel consumption, A/F, and emission trends of each component with a single unit.
