Model 8800 TCA Total Carbon Analyzer
![]() |
The Model 8800 TCA is based on a flame ionization detector (FID) and methanizer. It is designed to measure total hydrocarbon content and a combined carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO2) reading. The analyzer can be configured with internal components for a single or multipoint analysis of non-condensing, oxygen-free, inert gases.

Model 8800 TCA Analyzer - Product Specification
| Sampling: | Internal single or multipoint modules, with or without sample pump(s), for prefiltered (< or = .1 microns), non-condensing samples |
| Calibration: | Programmable automatic, or manual (with optional internal selection valves) |
| Detector: | Flame ionization detector (FID) |
| Catalyst: | Methanizer, which converts low levels of CO & CO2 to methane |
| MDQ: | Minimum detectable quantity: 0.1 ppm (100 ppb). |
| Range: | Analog - Virtual range with software selectable endpoints provides full-scale ranges from 1.0 - 100 ppm Digital - Display auto-ranges from 0.01 ppm to 1000 ppm (as methane) |
| Linearity: | ± 1 % Full-scale response |
| Drift: | Zero:< 0.1 ppm over 24 hours. Span: ± 1% over 24 hours, at 10 ppm full-scale |
| Response Time: | Fixed Mode: <30 seconds to 90% of final reading. Switching: <3 minutes. |
| Output: | Analog - 1 (standard) to 15 analog 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA loop power supplied, isolated outputs or optional 0-1 V, 0-5 V, or 0-10 V isolated outputs. Selectable for concentration, temperature, flow (fuel, air, or sample). Digital - Standard: RS-485 output (RS-232 option). |
| Relays: | 5 (standard) to 15 programmable (latched/not, NO/NC) contact closures (1A@30V max). Selectable for alarm thresholds or events (calibration, fault, or sample location). |
| Alarms: | Multilevel concentration, average concentration, and fault Audible - Horn: Sounducer, generating 85 dB @10 cm. Selectively en-/disabled for keypad input, fault, and alarms. |

| Operating Conditions: | Temperature: 32-104 °F (0-40 °C). Humidity: 0-95%, non-condensing. |
| Gas Specifications: | Support - Hydrocarbon content:<1 ppm required. Air @ approx. 200 cc/min, hydrogen @ approx. 40 cc/min. (Options: H2/N2 or H2/He @ 100 cc/min.) Sample - Background gas must be hydrogen, helium, nitrogen or argon @ 20 PSIG. *Combined CO/CO2 concentration of sample may not exceed 100 ppm. Span - Methane with CO or CO2 Connections - 1/4" O.D. Tube fitting connectors (1/8", 4 mm, and other options) |
