F-900 Portable Ethylene Analyser - Non-destructive Ethylene Measurement
The Felix Instruments' F-900 Portable Ethylene Analyser non-destructively measures ethylene in real time, providing Quality Assurance professionals with the data they need to manage ethylene accurately and efficiently.
The F-900 is capable of measuring low part-per-billion levels of ethylene from a single fruit or an entire storage room. A terminal block on the back enables communication with ethylene control systems and data-loggers. Optional CO2 and O2 gas analyzers, injection port for small volume samples, sample chambers, and heavy-duty travel case.Using two electrochemical sensors, the F-900 measures ethylene from 0-200 ppm with a lower detection limit of 0.025 parts-per-million (ppm).
The patent pending “PolarCept” filter removes polar hydrocarbons from the gas stream to ensure that measurements are not polluted by interfering gases such as ethanol.
