1. About this document 
1.1.  Aim / Scope 
This document informs about the worldwide applicable Honeywell ® GasLab Q2 hereinafter called 
short Q2. It is a real-time natural gas analyzer from the enCore instrument series and measures the 
superior  calorific  value,  Wobbe  index  and  other  parameters  in  natural  gas  and  is  designed  for 
operation  in  many  potentially  explosive  atmospheres.  GasLab  Q2  covers  a  wide  operating 
temperature  range, this  allows the  analyzer  to  be  placed  close  to the  process  to  obtain a  short 
response time.  
Common  applications are  control  and  regulation  of  gas  tubins,  fiscal  energy  measurement and 
analysis of gas mixtures. To do so the Q2 uses the configuration and analysis software enSuite. 
(Software details see chapter 8 Configuration and analysis software enSuite). 
 
Please note that only the software and hardware versions mentioned on the 
cover page are described here.
