Comparison of the DRI/OGC and Model 2001 Thermal/Optical Carbon Analyzers
Chow JC, Watson JG, Chen LA, Chang MO. 2005. Comparison of the DRI/OGC and Model 2001 Thermal/Optical Carbon Analyzers. Desert Research Institute. Reno, NV
The DRI/OGC analyzers used for IMPROVE carbon analysis since 1987 are obsolete and spare parts for repairs are no longer manufactured and increasingly difficult to obtain. The Model 2001 carbon analyzer has been designed and tested as a replacement for future IMPROVE sample analysis. This report summarizes a number of analyses comparing the DRI/OGC and Model 2001 analyzers under different configurations. The similarities and differences are reported and recommendations are made for a smooth transition from the current DRI/OGC analyzer to the Model 2001.
