GreCon’s New GASANALYSER MC – Rapid Formaldehyde Emission Testing

15-minute testing – The next generation in formaldehyde emission testing is here!

The GreCon GASANALYSER MC is an innovative laboratory test device for measuring formaldehyde emission from wood-based materials. The heart of GASANALYSER MC is a state-of-the-art infrared laser analyzer that allows the user to run fully automated emission tests without involving any chemicals. The tests are carried out at 25°C (passively controlled by the room temperature) and 50% humidity (actively controlled) within only 15 minutes per sample. In addition, the device is very easy to operate via the touch panel.

Some of the key benefits of the GASANALYSER MC are:

• Determination of formaldehyde emission according to ISO 12460-2:2024
• Close-meshed factory production control due to short testing time (15 min)
• Very high (repeatable) accuracy through the use of state-of-the-art laser spectroscopy
• Stable operation without necessary drift correction and long calibration interval
• Fully automated analysis; no wet chemistry
• Significant time saving for laboratory staff
• Excellent correlatability of results to reference methods

The heart of GASANALYSER MC is a laser infrared analyzer that measures the optical absorption of released formaldehyde. The measurement principle is as follows:

• A laser LED generates infrared laser light that is passed through an optical cell.
• The laser cell is flushed with the sample gas of the test chamber.
• Part of the light is attenuated by the formaldehyde in the sample gas.
• The detector detects the amount of missing light and can precisely calculate the amount of formaldehyde in the gas.

The GASANALYSER MC is completely operated via the touch panel of the device. The recorded measured values are represented and evaluated graphically in real time. The measured data can be provided both graphically and numerically to its users. This includes HCHO concentration in the sample gas flow (in parts per million, ppm) as a function of testing time and temperature, along with air flow rate and humidity in the test chamber as a function of testing time.

Results and raw data of the test emission curves can be either exported via the USB or web interface.
