PRODUCT FOCUS A BUSY, GROWING ASIAN MARKET [email protected] VERSATILE TRACE GAS ANALYSIS WITH THE SERVOPRO Chroma CHEE WEE YAP, SERVOMEX SALES DIRECTOR AND REST OF ASIA SITE LEADER, TAKES A LOOK AT THE VIBRANT, TECHNOLOGY-DRIVEN ASIAN MARKET Our dedicated Rest of Asia (ROA) team operates across a large area.The large number of scattered business clusters provides a fascinating, sophisticated and diverse market. Servomex maintains an active business presence in the region, with prominence in South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, and SEA (South East Asia) clusters. Japan is highly specialized, delivering high-grade industrial products and manufacturing materials Singapore is a hyper-economy, with a good mix of semiconductor production and petrochemical manufacturing It is capable of utilizing Servomex’s advanced Plasma Emissions Detector (PED), Flame Ionization Detector (FID), and Thermal Conductivity (TCD) sensing technologies to deliver results at parts- per-billion (ppb), parts-per-million (ppm) and percentage concentration levels. It can use PlasmaHC technology to measure non-methane hydrocarbons and methane without requiring a FID, eliminating maintenance and fuel needs. The SEA clusters (especially Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam) have a consistent domestic demand from the growing economies which are always hungry for infrastructures, such as power, steel, and cement telecommunications industry continues to expand rapidly in China, making the country a major player in the semiconductor market. Our team serves premium-end customers from South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan, delivering top-tier sub-ppb qualitative analysis products for their micro gas contamination UHP gas applications. Our industrial gas customer base in the South East Asia region continues to grow organically, with our Singapore core hub providing specialist support for regional customers. There’s also strong demand for traditional gas analysis equipment to control the production of the feedstock bulk gases that support these UHP gases. This technical and business hub has successfully delivered numerous system and software solutions to ensure customers can overcome their process challenges. The availability of high-tech infrastructures in these regions has led to the constant establishment of high-value pharmaceutical plants which consume medical and pharmaceutical grade industrial gases. The hub also operates a full range of service facilities to handle after-sales support and in-house repair for local and regional customers across our entire range of products. P06 hydrogen methane The SERVOPRO Chroma can be fitted with a choice of three cutting-edge, Gas Chromatography-based technologies, depending on application. This makes it customizable for multi-component gas measurements in a wide range of applications including medical gas purity, air separation, argon recovery, hydrogen purification and semiconductor wafer manufacture. North Asia territories such as South Korea have a technology-focused economy, with significant contributions from the semiconductor industry As a key market for Servomex P&S business in Asia, China has its own dedicated team, led by our China Sales Director Kevin Xu. The electronics and The C hroma measures trace: These territories demonstrate the full range and diversity of industries and gas analysis demands to be found in the region: [email protected] The region’s economic and topographic diversity ensures that Servomex will continue to grow in the Asia market. Industrial developments in the region have driven most of the countries to secure their own niche in the manufacturing sector, serving and sustaining their role in the Asian economy. Servomex will continue to focus on its growth in Asia, expanding our geographical coverage, better serving our install base, and strengthening our offering for mainstream projects. In addition, Servomex’s ArgonSep system is available to separate argon from oxygen without the need for scrubbers, providing a measurement that is both sensitive and free from maintenance. One of the most compact and powerful trace analyzers available to the market, the Chroma is 4U rack-mountable for easy integration into gas analysis systems. A standalone mainframe that does not require third-party software and is designed for easy operation, it has an intuitive user interface and high- resolution color LCD screen. Integrated software provides access to all functions, measurements and system status. The Chroma provides separate 4-20mA outputs for each measurement, ensuring peak impurity values and chromatogram signals. Its comprehensive digital and analog communications options deliver flexible operation, with internet and Ethernet connectivity for remote control and monitoring via a network or web browser. carbon monoxide carbon dioxide non-methane hydrocarbons nitrogen argon in background gases including: helium hydrogen nitrogen argon oxygen GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY This is an exceptionally accurate method of separating gas mixtures, measuring concentrations down to ppb levels. It is well suited for use in high- purity gas analysis processes, since the measurement is made after the sample has been separated, rather than within the sample.
