Extended Extended

Using patented tunable diode laser spectroscopy (TDLAS) technology, the SS500 analyzer is an economical choice for measuring H 2 O concentration in natural gas without coming into physical contact with the stream. The result is a sensor that does not suffer from contamination or drift due to vapor impurities such as glycol, methanol, or amines.

  • Natural gas quality measurements in production, storage, transportation, and distribution
  • Monitoring for natural gas pipelines, processing plants, compressor stations, gathering sites, and distribution quality
  • Suitable for use as a check-measurement device
  • Measurable ranges of up to 0-250 lb/mmscf (0-5275 ppm) H2O
Features
  • Economical real-time moisture measurements
  • Virtually maintenance-free
  • Reliable in harsh environments
  • Fast and accurate with no wet-up or dry-down delays
  • No contamination or drift due to vapor impurities such as glycol, methanol, amines, hydrogen sulfide, or mercaptans
  • NIST-traceable calibration with analog and serial outputs for remote monitoring
  • CSA certified for CSA Class 1, Division 2 or Class 1, Division 1
