Properties for gas quality (GQ): chromatograph tab
- Last UpdatedNov 21, 2025
- 2 minute read
This tab is used to define the Gas Quality (GQ) Properties that are unique to a Chromatograph.
For this tab to be visible, the Analysis Source must be set to Chromatograph. These properties define the default values for the chromatograph. These values do not affect any calculations with AVEVA Measurement Advisor . However, they are available for RealTime database applications in the defaultBuf array on the gasquality record.
For more information, refer to the AVEVA Pipeline Operations for Gas documentation.
