RGA6010
Rack-mounted and continuous Precision Measurement of Protective Heat Treating Atmospheres
CO, CO2, CH4, H2 – Used for Carburizing, FNC, and Nitriding
The rack-mounted continuous gas analyzer can be used for carburizing, neutral and ferritic nitrocarburizing heat treat applications. The measurement of the process gas provides calculated values for %C, KN, KC1. In endothermic based atmospheres, the instrument in conjunction with carbon probes can be used to automatically adjust COF to provide the most precise atmosphere measurement.
1 – Calculation of Kc may have inaccuracies in the presence of ammonia.
