GAS MIXER

The MCQ Gas Blender 6000 (and the 4000/3000 models) is an automated Gas Mixer created for laboratories, designed to generate, manage, and monitor gas mixtures with standard flow rates of non-corrosive, pure gases. It offers a modern alternative to multi-channel mass flow controllers, which are typically inaccurate and slow when dealing with low and steady flows, as well as a replacement for pre-mixed gas cylinders, which are often costly and take up significant space. We refer to our gas mixer as a “Lab in a Box.”

Better solution than Pre-Mixed Gas Cylinders.

Our Gas Mixers offer a superior alternative to pre-mixed gas cylinders. Our devices create custom gas mixtures in real-time using pure gases, simplifying the storage and shipping process while reducing costs. Furthermore, there are no limitations on the combination or ratio of gas mixtures that can be generated.

Better solution than Mass Flow Controllers.

A regular mass flow controller is completely inadeguate to measure and regulate small ratios keeping at same moment a stable flow. Comparing our Gas Mixer with a Mass Flow Controller reveals some significant advantages.

A Gas Mixer for Laboratory.

Our Gas Mixers are specifically designed to help laboratories achieve the best results in terms of accuracy, modularity, and process speed, while using only a small amount of space in the environment.

A Lab in a Box.

MCQ Instruments devices provide a complete laboratory experience in a single, ready-to-use box. Unlike traditional systems that require a complex tube system, external power supply, and significant space and budget considerations, our devices eliminate these additional requirements.

No specific skills are required.

Gas Mixers are easy to use and FULLY AUTOMATED. No specific skills are required to start creating your Gas Mixtures. Fast, stable, accurate, provided with an intuitive software and touch display. It assures top performances even when managing low flow rates.

Software included.

MCQ Instruments provides bundled software with all of its devices for full automation. Our instruments are designed to control every parameter, from the individual components of a gas mixture to the management of the entire process.

Touch Display.

In addition to our Gas Mixture Creator PC software, the GB6000 (4000, and 3000) comes with a user-friendly touch display that simplifies the creation and management of Gas Mixtures. With just a few clicks, the process can be easily automated without requiring the use of a computer.

Easy Integration.

ProfiBus, ModBus, Matlab Simulink compatible and USB, Bluetooth, WiFI and RS485 Bus ready to use. Python Library supplied.

Certified Devices and Gas Mixtures.

Our Gas Mixers hold CE, TUV, and cTUVUS certifications, ensuring their quality and safety. Moreover, the gas mixtures produced by our Devices will be ISO 6145 certified (coming soon), providing reliable and accurate results.
