Engine testing in automobiles and components
FTX-ONE-CS/RS
FTIR Exhaust Gas Analyzer Direct Measurement Type
FTX-ONE is a fast response and compact size FTIR analyzer for the simultaneous measurement of multiple components of engine exhaust gases.
The FTX-ONE offers a 5Hz sampling rate and simultaneously measure the concentrations of multiple components including NH3, CH4, and CO2, from (engine) direct exhaust gas using the Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) method in combination with multivariate analysis algorithm.

Evaluation of Catalyst and Fuel
Evaluation of aftertreatment systems such as urea SCR, gasoline three-way catalyst, and bioethanol fuel.
Features
Fast Response
The world's smallest high performance optical cell* realizes a fast response time of about 1.5 seconds** even for NH3, which is difficult to measure.
Low Sampling Flow Rate
Achieves low sampling flow rate sampling with the world's smallest high-performance optical cell* and enables measurement without affecting engine combustion or catalyst performance.
* According to our research in May 2018 ** Response speed T10-90 is about 1.5 sec on the calibration line
Compact Design (FTX-ONE-CS)
Approx. 1/2 the installation area and weight.* Improved freedom of layout and maintainability in the lab.
* At the size of the footprint
Fuel Consumption and A/F (FTX-ONE-RS)
Simultaneous measurement of THC and O2 enables correlation evaluation of fuel consumption, A/F, and emission trends of each component with a single unit.
