Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Can the Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer monitor multiple process streams?

Yes. With the Rapid Multi-stream Sampler (RMS), the Thermo Scientific Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer can monitor multiple gas streams at multiple sample points using a single analyzer. This reduction in the number of required analyzers reduces capital costs and simplifies maintenance, while the RMS enables centralized gas analysis across complex industrial processes.

What makes the Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer highly accurate for process gas analysis?

The Thermo Scientific Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer uses magnetic sector mass spectrometry, combining excellent linearity with high precision, long-term stability, and resistance to contamination. Magnetic sector technology is known to provide significantly better precision than quadrupole systems, while also delivering reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.

What gases can the Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer measure?

The Thermo Scientific Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer can measure a broad range of volatile compounds and permanent gases, including hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, hydrocarbons, noble gases, carbon monoxide (CO), and carbon dioxide (CO₂). It can accurately perform multi-component gas analysis. It supports concentrations from ppm to percent levels, making the Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer suitable for applications across petrochemical, metals, and bioprocess industries.

How fast is gas analysis with the Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer?

The Thermo Scientific Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer provides real-time gas analysis for multiple components in seconds, with most methods completed within 10 to 30 seconds and some in less than 2 seconds. This rapid analysis supports real-time process monitoring, enabling operators to respond quickly to changing conditions and maintain optimal performance.

How does the Prima PRO 710 process mass spectrometer compare to gas chromatography for process gas analysis?

The Thermo Scientific Prima PRO 710 Process Mass Spectrometer delivers faster gas analysis results, returning gas composition data in seconds, compared to minutes for gas chromatography. This faster response enables tighter process control, quicker detection of process upsets, regulatory compliance, and improved yield, particularly in dynamic applications such as petrochemical production and refining.
