Brand: Nutech · Category: Nutech 3000 (Compact)
The Nutech 3000 (Compact) is a portable FID analyzer for total hydrocarbons (THC), methane (CH₄) and non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHC) at stationary emission sources and fence lines. Pronitron provides quotes, demos and technical support for the Nutech 3000 (Compact) in Turkey.
Compact version: one-person field use
The Nutech 3000 (Compact) is the compact version of the Nutech 3000 series. It weighs under 10.5 kg including battery and H2 cartridge and measures 350 × 300 × 155 mm. A backpack-style carry option and handle allow one-person transport, and the built-in 285 Wh battery typically runs 3–4 hours without mains power or a generator. It can be operated horizontally or vertically.
Principle of technology
TVOC can be represented by THC or NMHC. The Nutech 3000 (Compact) uses catalytic oxidation and dual FID to measure THC, methane and NMHC simultaneously, without valve switching. Channel 1 (FID 1) measures total hydrocarbons; in channel 2 the catalytic oxidation module converts non-methane hydrocarbons to CO2 and H2O so that FID 2 measures methane only. NMHC is calculated as THC minus methane and data update every second. The whole sample path from sampling line to FID is heated to prevent condensation.
NMHC = THC − CH4
International standards
According to the manufacturer, the Nutech 3000 series is designed for measurements in line with EN 12619:2013, EN ISO 25140:2010, US EPA Method 25A, US EPA CTM-042, 40 CFR Part 1065, ISO 8178-1:2017, China HJ 1012-2018 and HJ 1331-2023, Japan MOE Notification No. 61, Korea ES 01507.1b, Taiwan NIEA A723.77B, and IMO MARPOL Annex VI / NOx Technical Code 2008 and MEPC.402(83) — covering stack gas as well as fence-line and fugitive emission screening.
Compact and field-ready
- Under 10.5 kg including battery and H2 cartridge; 350 × 300 × 155 mm.
- Backpack-style carry option and handle for one-person transport and setup.
- Horizontal or vertical operation; hand grip on the bottom panel.
- Rear-panel Vent, Air (external zero air), Span (standard gas) and FID exhaust ports.
Built-in tablet and simple software
- Built-in control tablet and software; Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, with control from about 50 m via Wi-Fi.
- Simple operation with no user settings required: Start/Stop, zero calibration, leak check, Block Check and manual purge.
- Manual purge can run with H2 and ignition off, saving hydrogen.
- Multiple, continuous and average modes; oxygen correction and humidity correction (dry-basis results).
- Results in ppm or mgC/m³; measurement location tagging.
- Data export to a computer via Wi-Fi (LocalSend) or Bluetooth.
Long field runs
- Metal hydride H2 cartridge kept warm by the oven: up to 40 hours; a drop in H2 flow shows when it is empty.
- Built-in 285 Wh battery: typical 3–4 h runtime without mains power or a generator.
- Combustion air from ambient air via the internal pump (silica-gel dried) or from an external zero-air cylinder.
Easy maintenance
- Two-stage filtration at the sampling handle and probe tip; automatic leak check, flow and pressure monitoring.
- Automatic data recording and archiving; export to CSV / Excel.
- Magnetic side cover: battery and air purification tube are replaced in seconds.
- Oven cover on the bottom panel gives easy access to the catalytic module and the sample and H2 restrictors.
- Ethernet port for firmware upgrades; internal condensate drain.
- Particle filter and filter tip on the heated sampling line.
