VA-5000 / VA-5000WM Series

Multi-Component Gas Analyzer

The Multi-Component Gas Analyzer VA-5000 Series is an all-round gas analyzer that satisfies measurement needs as required for environmental monitoring, energy development support, quality controls, and as a continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS). The VA-5000 Series Gas Analyzer can be configured with up to 4 detector modules within a single case. Many combinations of sensor modules with a wide selection of ranges allows this series of analyzers to be used for a variety of applications.

The Multi-Component Gas Analyzer is available as a 19-inch panel mount version (VA-5000) and as a wall mounted type analyzer (VA-5000WM) that enables to install in a limited installation space.

The optional VS-5000 Sample Gas Conditioning System is designed to support the VA-5000 Analyzer by proving the optimal sample conditions for measurement.
