Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the CAI 700M HFID Analyzer. Before using the 700M HFID, please

familiarize yourself with its operation by reading this manual. If you have any questions, please

do not hesitate to call California Analytical Instruments Technical Support for assistance. We

want you to be among our thousands of satisfied customers.

Description

The CAI 700M HFID analyzer is an exceptionally accurate Flame Ionization Detection (FID)

gas analyzer designed for measuring hydrocarbons concentrations in gas samples. The analyzer

utilizes a highly sensitive flame ionization detector for measuring volatile hydrocarbon

concentrations in industrial or vehicle emission applications.

The 700M HFID incorporates a non-methane hydrocarbon “cutter” that removes all

hydrocarbons except methane from the sample gas. This capability allows the operator to obtain

the methane, non-methane and total hydrocarbon concentrations of the sample.

The heated sample gas is maintained above its dew point by a self-contained, internally

adjustable oven. The oven temperature is factory-set to be controlled at 191ºC. The sample gas is

maintained at this elevated temperature until it exits the analyzer’s bypass outlet, preventing any

loss of hydrocarbon concentration in the sample due to condensation.
