  • Page 3 Why List NMHC as an Monitoring Target • TVOC can be represented by THC (CH4+NMHC) or NMHC. • CH4 is a non-toxic and unharmful gas and it accounts for the major part of THC. NMHC is the harmful & hazardous part in THC. Thus, to analyze toxic VOCs, NMHC is a more precise target than THC.
  • Page 4 ⚫ Research institutes. They can use this instrument on their VOCs research projects. Technology Principle TVOC can be represented by THC or NMHC. The Nutech 3000 adopts catalytic oxidation + double FIDs technology to simultaneously analyzes THC & NMHC. The sample gas is introduced to the analyzer by 2 channels. FID 1 analyzes the concentration of THC (total hydrocarbon) of the gas sample in channel 1.
