Latest Announcements

Diablo Analytical has released our MPValve Universal Software. This new release of the MPValve Software adds support for Valco Instruments (VICI) two-position switching valves and “universal” actuators. It is also recommended for use with the Windows 7 (32 or 64-bit) operating systems.

About MPValve Universal

The Diablo MPValve Universal software controls Valco Instruments (VICI) multi-position/selector valves and two-position/switching valves via RS-232 serial communications using either the micro-electric or universal actuator. The software consists of two applications: MPValve Controller and MPValve Sequencer. The MPValve Controller application allows both interactive and automated control of valve position, while MPValve Sequencer is a stand-alone valve sequencing application.

New Quick Start Start Guide: Ships with the new quick start guide for use with the Agilent Technologies ChemStation software

Natural Gas Analysis Edition

New ISO Calculations and Results: Adds support for the ISO 6976 Standard with corresponding physical property data sources and default configuration files.
Natural Gas Liquids – Extended (C6+) Fraction Calculations and Reports: Adds support for GPA 2186-type natural gas liquids (NGL), extended (C6+) fraction reporting. Includes separate/combined reporting of the extended fraction and correction of the extended fraction raw amounts using a “bridge” correction factor.
Support for the GPA 2177-03 Standard: Adds support for the GPA 2177-03 Standard with raw component amounts calibrated in liquid volume%.
New Physical Property Data Sources: Adds several new physical property data sources including GPA TP-17 (1998 revision). ISO 6976 at 15/15 DegC and at 25/20 Deg C.
Support for Raw Component Amounts in Weight% and Liquid Volume%: For NGL applications you can calibrate the GC method in Weight% instead of Mole%. EZReporter will automatically convert the raw Weight% amounts from the data system to Mole% and Liquid Volume%.Similarly, for GPA 2177-03 applications, EZReporter will automatically convert raw Liquid Volume% amounts to normalized Mole% and Weight%.

Results Database Module

New Results added to Database: The new NGL – Extended Fraction results are now saved in the Results Database.
