1-3 THEORY OF TECHNOLOGY
This Analyzer Module uses the flame ioniza-
tion method of detection. The sensor is a
burner in which a regulated flow of sample
gas passes through a flame sustained by
regulated flows of a fuel gas (a hydro-
gen/diluent mixture) and air.
tion method of detection. The sensor is a
burner in which a regulated flow of sample
gas passes through a flame sustained by
regulated flows of a fuel gas (a hydro-
gen/diluent mixture) and air.
Within the flame, the hydrocarbon compo-
nents of the sample stream undergo a com-
plex ionization that produces electrons and
positive ions. Polarized electrodes collect
these ions, causing current to flow through an
electronic measuring circuit.

The ionization current is proportional to the
rate at which carbon atoms enter the burner,
and is therefore a measure of the concentra-
tion of hydrocarbons in the sample. This
measure of concentration is placed on the
network, where it can be shown on a data ac-
quisition device.
