Introduction
Automatic Tracer Gas Monitor
AUTOTRAC® Facilitates Tracer Gas Evaluation of:
  • Ventilation Performance
  • Exhaust Re-entrainment/Recirculation
  • Hazardous Contaminant Migration
  • Chemical & Biological Release Accidents
  • Shelter-in-Place
  • Indoor Air Quality
  • Leak Detection
  • Duct, Stacks and Pipeline Flow Rate

Lagus Applied Technology, Inc. provides tracer gas measurement instrumentation and services. Co-principals Dr. Peter Lagus and Dr. Richard Grot have pioneered the development, use, and standardization of many of the commonly used tracer gas methods.

Together Drs. Lagus and Grot have over 50 years of combined experience in field analysis and specialized instrument development. Through this experience they designed and developed the AUTOTRAC® Automatic Tracer Gas Monitor. The AUTOTRAC was designed to provide automated capability for the quantitative evaluation of ventilation performance, contaminant migration, hazardous material leakage, and fluid (gas/air) flow rate using tracer gas techniques. AUTOTRAC® DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING CAPABILITIES

AUTOTRAC® is a measurement specific gas chromatograph that is optimized for SF6 detection. It is under microprocessor control and is self calibrating. The microprocessor allows the AUTOTRAC® to perform many simple ventilation and flow rate measurements under automatic control, thereby minimizing or completely eliminating the amount of external assistance that an operator must provide in order to obtain satisfactory data. AUTOTRAC® can also be configured to respond to perfluorocarbon vapors, and halocarbons used as tracers.

LMP 3000 Halocarbon and Perfluorocarbon Monitor

The LMP 3000 Halocarbon and perfluorocarbon monitor is a dedicated electron capture gas chromatograph that is optimized for the detection of Halocarbon 11, Halocarbon 112 or perfluorocarbons such as PDCB or PMCH when used as a challenge agent for nuclear carbon filters as specified in ANSI Standard N510. This monitor is manufactured exclusively for NCS Corporation of Columbus, Ohio who in turn provides this unit to the nuclear power industry. The monitor is also used by the military to undertake ANSI N510-type testing of charcoal filter systems.
