Problem
Many industrial processes lack real-time, accurate chemical analysis of process gases, hindering process control, safety, and efficiency. Traditional multi-component gas analyzers often require frequent maintenance and may not provide the speed or sensitivity needed for dynamic decision-making.
Solution
ARI manufactures Raman Laser Gas Analyzers (RLGAs) that provide real-time chemical compositional analysis of process gases in demanding industrial environments. Utilizing Raman Spectroscopy with a novel IntraCavity approach, these analyzers offer fast, sensitive, and multi-species gas analysis without complicated chemometrics software. The RLGA product line includes the RLGA Core for OEM integration, the RLGA Lab for R&D and light industrial applications, and the RLGA Xtreme for harsh industrial environments. ARI's RLGAs enhance process visibility, enabling improved efficiency, reduced emissions, enhanced safety, increased uptime, and better product quality.
Target Audience
ARI's primary customers include professionals in steel manufacturing, bioprocessing, renewable energy, hydrocarbons, and chemical processing industries, as well as OEM integrators and research institutions.
