RAYGAS  GAS SYSTEM

The RAYGAS gas system is the latest in a series of gas detection systems that have been designed for the mudlogging industry over the last 30 years.  This system has retained the simplicity of the past and the innovation and technology of the present to develop the easiest to use and the most reliable gas instrument of the industry.  This system has been designed with field service in mind.  By incorporating both the total gas detector and the gas chromatograph into the same chassis, flow plumbing problems have been minimized.  All flow components are easily cleaned and all internal plumbing is ¼ inch plastic tubing.  The detectors used are the ceramic bead detector for both the CC and the chromatograph, and the TC is a long life platinum wire detector.  The gas detector has separate zero controls and amplifiers for the CC and TC.  The chromatograph is microprocessor controlled for precise timing and integrator start pulses and utilizes a low cost and easily available gas chromatograph column.
