KIN-TEK’s (USA) new automated FlexStream™ gas standards generating system is now CE approved and available in Europe, offering total flexibility for creating precision gas mixtures. Mixtures are produced by diluting the emission from permeation tubes, or diffusion tubes with an inert diluent, typically nitrogen or zero air.
The FlexStream™ is ideally suited for creating trace concentration – ppm, ppb, and pptr – mixtures. An internal microprocessor sets the operating mode and automatically adjusts dilution flows to achieve desired concentrations.
The FlexStream™ can also be controlled remotely by a PC or process computer using Modbus connectivity. Using an external PC allows remote control of the FlexStream™, uploading QC methods that can run automatically, and evaluating ‘scenarios’ to aid in setting up the unit to create specific mixture concentration ranges.
