+ | |||
+ | The Merlin AutoGC Xplorer (**MAX**) is a cloud-based database designed to ingest data generated by chromatographic equipment deployed into EPA Photochemical Assessment Monitoring Sites (**PAMS**) which are collecting and analyzing hourly concentrations of up to 60 volatile organic compounds (**VOC**). | ||
+ | |||
+ | Orsat, LLC has developed and designed MAX to accommodate data originating from either PerkinElmer Ozone Precursor systems or Agilent systems using Markes International pre-concentration sampling system. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Features ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | The PAMS AutoGC systems collect not only hourly ambient air data but also have Quality Control samples which are outlined in the EPA PAMS Technical Assistance Guidance document (**TAD**). | ||
+ | * Quality Control Sample Types | ||
+ | |||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | In order to allow the evaluation of these QC samples each data set or //Site// has a definition which incorporates configuration parameters for the //Network// which defines information about incoming data such as a list of target VOCs, which targets will be in the QC samples and their concentrations and control limits. | ||
+ | === Information Required for Network Configuration === | ||
+ | |||
+ | - Units (default is ppbC) | ||
+ | - How Lost data will be displayed | ||
+ | - How zero values will be displayed | ||
+ | - Total Blank Maximum value | ||
+ | - List of Target Compounds by Channel | ||
+ | - List of Target Compounds in each of the required QC samples (LCS, CVS, RTS, Blank and MDL by channel including required limits or thresholds | ||
+ | - List of applicable Null, Qualifier and Inform Flags available for use in AQS files. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Each Site also has unique information to identify it in the database. | ||
