TeeChart for .NET at Diablo Analytical: Real-Time Charting for Mass Spectrometry & Gas Analysis

About Diablo Analytical

Diablo Analytical, Inc., founded in 1993, is a U.S.-based company that develops specialized scientific instruments and real-time analytical software. Their focus lies in gas analysis and mass spectrometry, enabling laboratories and industrial sites to:

  • Monitor chemical compositions in real-time
  • Perform advanced gas chromatography and mass spectrometry analysis
  • Optimize processes using high-frequency signal insights

Their flagship products include instrumentation like the Diablo 5000A Real-Time Gas Analyzer (RTGA-MS)—a system that acquires, processes and visualizes live analytical data to support mission-critical decisions in laboratories and process environments.

TeeChart for NET Integration

Diablo Analytical’s software is deeply data-driven. Each system they deliver requires:

  • Real-time signal tracing and measurement tracking
  • Interactive plotting for spectrum and chromatographic data
  • Export-ready visuals for reporting and regulatory documentation

To meet these requirements, the software must offer powerful yet flexible visualization capabilities. That’s where TeeChart for .NET comes in.

Diablo Analytical began integrating TeeChart for .NET into their software solutions in 2014. Since then, TeeChart has helped power the data visual interfaces for a range of their products.
