TPH in soil measured in minutes
Portable infrared (IR) analyser quickly determines total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) levels at remediation sites or around underground storage tanks in less than 10-15 minutes, including extraction
On-site analysis of total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) concentration levels in soil, using S-316 instead of Freon for the extraction process as recently approved by the ASTM, is easily handled using the Infracal TOG/TPH analyser, model CVH, says manufacturer Wilks Enterprise The Infracal TOG/TPH analyser is a portable infrared (IR) analyser that quickly determines TPH levels in less than 10-15 minutes, including extraction

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has established limitation guidelines for discharges of oily wastes from facilities utilising any type of oil and grease in their manufacturing process
Concentration as low as 20ppm, to well over 5000ppm, can be easily measured.
The InfraCal CVH was used to help develop the new ASTM method D 7066-04 which approves the use of dimer/trimer of chlorotrifluoroethylene (S-316) for analysis of recoverable oil and grease and nonpolar material in soil by infrared determination.
The Infracal TOG/TPH analyser is portable (2.2kg, operating from a 12V power supply), direct reading, and microprocessor-controlled with simple pushbutton operation for easy use.
It requires minimal training or knowledge of infrared analytical techniques.
The Infracal TOG/TPH analyser is said to be ideal for TPH-in-soil measurements at remediation sites or around underground storage tanks. Request a free brochure from Wilks Enterprise ...
