MAX300-RTG 2.0

 Industrial Process Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer

Unmatched Quadrupole Mass Spec Technology 

Powerful Mass Spec Technology Meets Touchscreen Convenience 

Introducing the EXTREL™ MAX300-RTG™ 2.0 Real-Time Industrial Gas Analyzer – a cutting-edge solution designed for process control, environmental compliance, and ambient air monitoring. Leveraging advanced quadrupole mass spectrometry, this analyzer continuously monitors the composition of industrial gas streams with unmatched precision.

Thanks to its intuitive touchscreen interface, operators can access real-time gas analysis with ease, improving both user experience and efficiency.  MAX300-RTG 2.0 offers benefits such as: 

  • Operate with ease using a simple, intuitive touchscreen interface

  • Access real-time data through powerful industrial mass spectrometry technology

  • Analyze complete stream composition with fewer analyzers needed

  • Detect trace to bulk components with wide dynamic range (ppb to %)

  • Monitor multiple streams using a flexible, multi-port selector (160+ sample points)

  • Rely on expert support from an industry-best applications team

The MAX300-RTG 2.0 delivers rapid, high-precision results—analyzing full sample compositions in seconds. You can automate it to monitor several points within a single process or across multiple production lines, all with a single analyzer.

By integrating Extrel’s industry-leading 19mm quadrupole mass filter and advanced electronics, the MAX300-RTG 2.0 achieves next-level performance:

  • Maintain precision with near-zero mass scale drift

  • Detect all compounds with uniform resolution across the mass range

  • Resist harsh conditions with extreme corrosion and contamination resistance

  • Exceed expectations with performance specifications that outmatch other process technologies

Designed for industrial reliability, the MAX300-RTG 2.0 requires minimal maintenance while offering maximum flexibility. Easily monitor hydrocarbons in feed gas streams and ppm-level contaminants like H₂S. The system instantly calculates and transmits control parameters—such as BTU value, Specific Gravity, and Wobbe Index—for immediate use by your plant’s process control system.

U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (EPA) REGULATIONS

On December 2, 2023, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) revealed its conclusive regulation aimed at significantly slashing methane and air pollution emissions originating from oil and natural gas operations. This comprehensive final measure, spanning over 1,600 pages, encompasses enhanced and updated standards for methane and other air pollutants from new, modified, and reconstructed sources. Additionally, it provides emissions guidelines to aid states in formulating plans aimed at curbing methane emissions from existing sources.  Download the EPA Fact Sheet

BENEFITS

The MAX300-RTG 2.0 Real-Time Industrial Gas Analyzer uses an ionizer to break sample molecules into charged fragment ions that are then separated based on their mass-to-charge ratio as they move through the electric fields generated by the quadrupole mass filter. The ions register a current at the detector, creating a set of peaks called a mass spectrum. Each compound has a unique spectrum, making mass spectrometry a highly selective, flexible technique.
