The HALO 3 H2O analyzer provides users with the unmatched accuracy, reliability, speed of response and ease of operation that users of Tiger Optics analyzers know and expect. Featuring Tiger Optics’ powerful Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy-based moisture sensor in a very compact and economic analyzer design, this versatile analyzer allows users to measure moisture in most inert, corrosive and toxic gases with just one device. Users also enjoy freedom from requirements such as periodic sensor maintenance, span calibrations, purifier replacement and pump rebuilds. As a result, the HALO 3 H2O analyzer is ideally suited to many applications where moisture measurement is extremely critical. These applications include fixed bulk gas continuous quality control, portable mobile analytical carts, process tool monitoring, air separation, gas cylinder quality control and many other demanding applications.
Designed for trace level moisture analysis, the HALO 3 H2O offers:
- Sub parts per billion (ppb) moisture detection capability in an array of gases
- Absolute measurement (freedom from calibration gases)
- Wide dynamic range—over four orders of magnitude
- Low cost of ownership and operational simplicity
- Clean technology—no external calibration gases required
- Compact analyzer footprint
- Low gas consumption to conserve rare and costly gas
