APIX Analytics Micro GC Modules and OEM Solutions

APIX Analytics GC modules are plug-in micro gas chromatography units that each combine an injector, a separation column and a detector on silicon. They are the building blocks of the ChromPix2, TwinPix and ATEX-certified ChromEx analyzers and are also available for integration into OEM instruments. Akan Industrial and Automation represents APIX Analytics in Türkiye and helps customers select the right module set for each application.

Who is APIX Analytics?

APIX Analytics was founded in 2014 after eight years of collaboration between CEA and Caltech. The company develops highly miniaturized multi-gas analyzers by integrating the traditional analytical chain on silicon: sampling, gas injection, separation of complex mixtures, then detection, identification and quantification of each compound.

How the modular micro GC concept works

Each module embeds a complete GC chain. Several modules can be combined (multiplexed) in one analyzer, so a single system can cover a wide application range. Modules are selected according to the components to be measured – the portfolio ranges from hydrogen to heavy hydrocarbons.

Analyzer Channels Area classification
TwinPix 2 Safe area
ChromPix2 4 Safe area
ChromEx 200 2 ATEX / IECEx hazardous area
ChromEx 400 4 ATEX / IECEx hazardous area

OEM solutions

APIX modules let instrument manufacturers add chromatography to an existing product. The manufacturer keeps its own brand and features while gaining a more powerful analytical instrument.

Why choose Akan for micro GC projects?

Akan reviews your process data, works with APIX Analytics on module selection, and delivers the analyzer with sample conditioning, shelter or cabinet integration and DCS connection. Ask for the APIX catalogue via our contact form, or see our analytical instrumentation services.

Frequently asked questions

What is inside an APIX GC module?

Each module contains a complete gas chromatography chain: an injector, a separation column and a detector, integrated using silicon microfabrication.

Which analyzers accept APIX modules?

The modules plug into the ChromPix2 and TwinPix analyzers and into their ATEX-certified versions, the ChromEx 400 and ChromEx 200.

What gases can APIX modules analyze?

The module portfolio covers applications from hydrogen to heavy hydrocarbons. Module selection depends on the components and concentration ranges of each application.

Can APIX technology be built into another manufacturer's instrument?

Yes. APIX offers OEM solutions so manufacturers can add chromatography to their own product while keeping their brand and features.
