Rapidox 6100 C4-FN Multi-Gas Pumpback Analyser

Product Information

The Rapidox 6100 Multi-gas is a portable, zero-emissions gas analyser designed to measure alternative gas mixtures and CO₂ in high-voltage switchgear, circuit breakers, transformers and gas cylinders. It simultaneously measures gas purity, moisture and contamination, with a modular configuration that can be tailored to specific gas requirements and upgraded as needed.

Product Information

The Rapidox 6100 Multi-gas is a fully automatic zero-emissions multi-gas gas analyser for measuring gas compartments containing mixtures of C4-FN (Novec 4710) blended with CO2 (or pure CO2 only) and O2, all combined in a single portable instrument. Common brand names for these gases are g3 and AirPlus. The modular design allows the customer to purchase only the gas types they require with the potential to upgrade the instrument in the future. The Rapidox measures the gas purity, water-content and contamination gases for each gas type in high voltage switchgear, circuit breakers and transformers as well as gas bottles. It is a fully portable lithium battery powered instrument.

Exceptional accuracy and stability are provided when measuring the purity of the compartment gas, through specially selected sensors. The modular configuration allows for up to six compatible gases to be analysed simultaneously in each gas type, using one analyser. The Rapidox is fully compatible with mixtures of C4-FN & CO2 & O2 | mCO2, together with carbon monoxide (CO) which is the primary toxic contamination gas The unit also measures the water content of the gas in dewpoint or ppm to ensure dryness is acceptable.

The Rapidox 6100 Multi-gas is housed neatly in an IP66-rated Peli transport case and supplied with sample hoses and compatible coupling accessories. Once powered and connected, the operator can select which gas blend to work with and the Rapidox configures the measurement screen correctly. If the user is changing gas type the unit will run a purge cycle to clean the existing gas from the analyser and into an external recovery bag. During the measurement the Rapidox automatically removes a small quantity of pressurised gas from the electrical equipment or gas cylinder, controlled with an automatic pressure sensing function. A vacuum purge cycle and internal gas storage system ensures that no air can contaminate the gas sample and that no test gas is able to escape during the testing period.

All measured gases are analysed and data logged simultaneously with only a few minutes required to achieve a stable reading. A powerful compressor then returns the gas to the electrical equipment at high pressure. Results are displayed on screen and printed using the inbuilt thermal printer if required. The unit has multiple safety features built in to ensure the cycle is completed correctly without gas loss or cross contamination.
