APPARATUS FOR FRACTIONATION OF NATURAL GAS AT LOW TEMPERA-TURES AND PRESSURES ANALYSIS OF MINE ATMOSPHERES 75 The other model, the short or portable type, in employed for theanalysis of gas mixtures when extreme accuracy is not required. Itsaccuracy is about to per cent and is comparable with thatusually obtained in technical gas analysis when water is employedas the confining fluid. Both instruments depend upon the sameprinciple. The short model is constructed witli a view to portability,When in position it is upright, about 10 cm.
