PCTPro-E&E
|
A fully automated Sieverts instrument for measuring gas (CO2, CH4, C2H6, N2) sorption properties of materials
The PCTPro-E&E is a fully automated Sieverts instrument for measuring gas sorption properties of materials. It is particularly suited for all kinds of study in the fast growing Energy and Environment field. With its new capabilities of easy gas switchings it is well designed for the full range of CCS (Carbon capture and sequestration) studies.  PCT Pro-E&E can be combined with the Mass Spectrometer RGA ProPCT Pro-E&E can be connected to the C80 Calorimeter

Volumetric Sorption technique
• Incomparable versatility: the PCTPro-E&E operates from vacuum to high pressure (200 bar) on multiple volume Gas Doser (5 to 1200 ml) to tackle a wide variety of applications.
• Wide range of temperature: the PCTPro-E&E covers a temperature range from -260°C to 500°C with different optional holders.
• Large variety of samples: the PCTPro-E&E is designed to work on powders (CO2 storage materials, catalysts), on fibers (carbon), on thin films (food and pharmaceutical packagings, electronics), liquids (CO2 capture solvents).
• Highly automated: Automatic pressure range switching is available between high and low pressure transducers (from 0.001 to 200 bar). The PCTPro software includes 13 automated processes for system preparation, sample preparation and 4 types of
measurements (kinetics, PCT, Cycling kinetics and Cycling PCT).
• Portable equipment: the PCTPro-E&E is portable and can be combined with other
characterization techniques (X-Ray, neutron diffraction).
