CIC Photonics, Inc. is
dedicated to providing today’s growing industries with the highest sensitivity
and fastest time response instrumentation. Our analyzers are used worldwide in
a variety of different arenas, and although CIC Photonics has a set of core
systems, we pride ourselves on truly meeting the needs of our customers by adapting
the core analyzers to their specifications.
Our IRGAS Extra
Sensitive Gas Analyzer incorporates a rugged FTIR spectrometer with a stainless
steel 4m to 6m, or a 9.6m gas cell. This combination produces an analyzer that
can handle some of the most demanding applications, while still providing high
energy thru puts of 36-48%. The IRGAS Extra Sensitive Gas Analyzer is ideal for
applications requiring limits of detection in the ppb level to >10 ppb, and
has rapid gas exchange due to it’s low internal volume.
Included with the
IRGAS Extra Sensitive Gas Analyzer is CIC Photonics patented SPGAS analytical
software package. This package does everything from concentration tracking and
hardware managing to allowing the user to recalculate previously collected data
within minutes.
Each IRGAS system is incorporated with CIC Photonics patented
SPGAS analytical software package. This package includes the following patented
softwares: IRGAS 100 or IRGAS 100 with SpectraStream, Qmax, Configuration
Manager, and Reprocessing Tool. These programs provide a unique solution to
analytical problems. All of the programs are extremely user friendly so that
the programs can be operated by anyone regardless of skill level. The IRGAS 100
software provides real-time monitoring of species concentration, while also
having the capabilities to control various hardware components within the
system. Some of the hardware components that can be managed by the software are
valves, pressure transducers, temperature controllers, etc....
Working with the SPGAS software, SpectraStream allows the user
to view changes in species concentrations within seconds of the changes happening
through the program’s Fast Concentration Tracker by decreasing the response time
that is typically associated with FTIR.
The systems calibrations are generated in the Qmax program which
permits the user to easily generate calibrations and/or add new species to preexisting
calibrations. In addition to creating new calibrations, Qmax can be used to
apply correction factors to current calibrations.
The IRGAS Configuration Manager is a program that contains all
of the information regarding the system in one central location. In the Configuration
Manager the user can find various parameters for the system that can be altered to their needs.
Our most recent program added to the software package is the Quantification
Reprocessing Tool. This program allows the user to recalculate data that had
been previously collected. Instead of having to recollect data for temperature
and pressure changes, a user can enter the new parameters in the Quantification Reprocessing
Tool and the program will recalculate the data with the new parameters. As well
as recalculating new parameters it can reprocess using new calibration files that
have more or less species being quantified. The Quantification Reprocessing
Tool can also be used to determine the accuracy of a calibration file and help
to determine the correction factor needed for calibrations. Collected spectra
can also be displayed and viewed sequentially in the Quantification Reprocessing Tool allowing
the viewer to see slight changes in the spectra.
