MAX-EMS-10

Advanced Emissions Monitoring System

The Thermo Scientific™ EMS-10 Continuous Emissions Monitoring System (CEMS) is a fully automated FTIR-based solution for monitoring emissions. It integrates the Thermo Scientific™ MAX-iR™ FTIR Gas Analyser, offering precise analysis of a wide range of gaseous compounds from percent concentrations to parts-per-billion (ppb). Designed to meet EPA standards, this system requires minimal user interaction while ensuring compliance for regulatory reporting.

With its modular design, the MAX-EMS-10 can be customized to fit specific applications and monitor up to four emission sources simultaneously using the optional four-channel multiplexer. Its ability to handle hot, wet samples up to 150°C makes it ideal for challenging industrial environments like combustion processes and thermal catalytic oxidizers.

The MAX-Analytical™ STANDARD Software Suite provides automated data analysis, reporting, and quality control through an intuitive touchscreen interface. Additionally, the MAX-EMS-10 offers seamless integration with facility control systems for efficient monitoring, proactive maintenance, and timely regulatory compliance.
