Counting the cost of unreliable gas analysers

Back in 1977 when Signal Group first started manufacturing gas analysers, components were less proficient and consistent, and analysers required a higher level of ‘tender loving care’. At that time, James Clements, the company’s Managing Director, was little more than a twinkle in his father’s eye, but today, with an

Multiplexed gas analysers can lower costs

Just as a puppy is not just for Christmas, a gas analyser is not just for regulatory compliance. Process managers generally install a continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS) because they have to, by law. In the following article, James Clements, MD at Signal Group, explains how businesses can extract maximum

Why Certification Matters in VOC Monitoring – MCERTS, EN14181 & EN15267 Explained

When monitoring volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and total hydrocarbons (THC) in regulated industries, accuracy isn’t optional — it’s a legal and operational necessity. Whether you’re managing a waste incinerator, a thermal oxidiser, or a medium combustion plant, your gas analysis system must meet strict performance and certification standards. At Signal Group, we’ve engineered the SOLAR CEMNEX to not only deliver
