Item # Model 317K, Portable Analyzer for Hydrocarbons, Suitcase (K) Enclosure


The Nova 317 Series Portable Hydrocarbon Analyzer is designed for the measurement of propane or gasoline
vapor (using a correction factor) from a closed vessel.

The built-in sampling pump draws in a sample through an external hose where it then passes through a filter, flow
meter and infrared detector for measurement. The measurement results are then displayed on an easy-to-read
digital meter with switchable backlight.

A built-in rechargeable battery has enough power for about 5 hours of continuous operation and the analyzer can
be used while it is recharging. A red LED indicates when to recharge the analyzer and a green LED indicates that
it is receiving recharging power. A recharger is included.
