The DHA configuration is based on the Agilent Gas Chromatograph configured for a test method with the required hardware and software components:
- Flame Ionization Detector (FID) with high scanning rate
- Split/Splitless injection port to split the sample for maximum detection and load ability of the column
- Cryogenic mode (N2 or CO2)
- 50 or 100 meter DHA analytical column
- Calibration, reference or quality control samples
- PetroReporter software
PetroReporter is a universal software tool that automates data processing of petroleum samples. After data processing PetroReporter creates the required DHA reports. Some examples are: Chromatogram plot of the peak labels over a user selectable time interval, Individual hydrocarbons & group types, Oxygenates, PIONA report, TBP distribution, Properties summary of Bromine Number, Gross and Nett Heat of Combustion of liquid, Reid Vapor Pressure, RON and MON values, Specific Gravity.
