Learn about our AROMA analyzers

AROMA - TOX

AROMA-TOX has the broadest compound coverage in the AROMA family. The innovative dual-laser system, allows for the detection of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), carbon monoxide (CO) and amine in addition to methane, BTEX and other VOC measurements detected with the AROMA-VOC. Ideal for deployments around oil refineries and other industrial settings.

AROMA-TOX operates in two modes: RapidScan and LabScan. In RapidScan, the direct spectroscopy mode, the AROMA-TOX can detect H2S, methane, and HCN down to 1 ppbv, 2 ppbv, and 10 ppbv in 5 seconds.  LabScan mode utilizes a thermal desorption separation before analysis by the CRDS core enabling it to reach lower detection limits.  AROMA-TOX has a demonstrated method detection limit for benzene of down to 2 pptv for an 8 minute run. 

Entanglement Technologies’ AROMA instrumentation can be used for long-term, unattended, fixed-site monitoring or in a mobile platform. AROMA was designed to be used by technical and non-technical personnel with low system requirements for implementation.
