Announcing the Diablo 5000B RTGA and MS Sensor 4.0 Process Analysis Software

By

Antioch, CA – Diablo Analytical, Inc. is announcing the release of their new 5000B Real-Time Gas Analyzer (RTGA) for rapid, high-quality experimental measurement in the Engineering and Chemistry world.  Along with the 5000B RTGA, Diablo Analytical is also announcing the release of the MS Sensor 4.0 Process Analysis Software.

The new modern, software and hardware capability allows more sample interface options to connect with a wide range of gas streams from experiments and provides for more simplified operation.

The Diablo 5000B RTGA Gas Analyzer is based on the industry standard, Agilent Technologies 5977B single-quadrupole mass spectrometer, a proven platform with worldwide local service.

The Diablo 5000B RTGA Gas Analyzer includes the new easy to use MS Sensor Application Builder software for rapid and quick evaluation of new gas streams for optimum instrument method conditions. Then, the software auto-generates the actual method for acquisition of data.

The Diablo 5000B RTGA Gas Analyzer includes the MS Sensor 4.0 software with new simplified calibration and pressure compensation functionality. The design of the hardware sample interface enables robust linear calibrations across different matrix gases and different sample pressures.

EZReporter 4.0.11.8 Released

By

Diablo Analytical has released Version 4.0.11.8 of the  EZReporter Software.  This is a minor release that includes a number of fixes and enhancements.  The significant enhancements are listed below.  A complete list of fixes and enhancements is provided in the release notes.

Enhancements

[+] [ALL] Added a Data Analysis version of the installer that doesn’t include any connector plugin DLLs.

[+] [NGA] Added a “Result Rounding” option to the Miscellaneous Settings. If this option is enabled, then the component results are rounded to the number of decimal places specified in each result’s display format setting in the reported results table before calculating the total results. This addresses a situation where sum of the component results displayed in the component table on the report does not always exactly equal the total result due to rounding of the displayed component result. If this option is disabled (the default), then the total results are calculated using the full double-precision component results. Certain results that are used in subsequent calculations (Molecular weight and Compressibility), are initially calculated at full, double precision, and then rounded after all other calculations have been completed.

Installing this Release

If you are running version 4.0.4.1 or later, you can download and install the correct version of the software using the “Check for Updates” option of the “Help” menu.

Otherwise, simply download and run the installation program from the download page.

IMPORTANT: Make sure you download the installer that includes support for the chromatography data system you are using.

NOTE: The “web” version of the installer can be used to upgrade an existing installation even if the computer doesn’t have Internet access.

Your current version of EZReporter will be uninstalled and the new version installed automatically.  Your license status will be preserved.

Software Support/Maintenance Subscription

This is a free upgrade if your software support subscription has not expired.  You can view the status of software support in the License Status window (click “Help > License Status”).  If software support has expired then you will either need to extend your support subscription or upgrade depending on when your support subscription expired.  Contact Diablo Analytical for information on extending software support, or upgrading your license.

About Diablo EZReporter Software

The Diablo EZReporter software is a flexible, advanced, post-run data analysis and reporting solution for any instrument that can be controlled by a supported chromatography data system. The EZReporter Natural Gas Analysis and Natural Gas Liquids Editions are state-of-art solutions for natural gas analysis and natural gas liquids/extended reporting.
