SS3000 - Dual H2O / H2O Analyzer Solution

 

 
For a dual H2O measurement, the SS3000 Single Channel Analyzer is capable of measuring two dual moisture channels using tunable diode laser technology. The two components are measured in a single analyzer. The SS3000 delivers precise, reliable measurements and dramatically reduces maintenance costs.

Application Note

 
Rapid Response Time

The SS3000 analyzer takes four measurements per second with a laser and detector and immediately averages the results. Because there is no contact with the gas, real-time measurements are not hampered by wet-up or dry-down times as with surfaced-based sensors.


Trustworthy Measurements
Dependable data is an essential element in the quest for improved safety and quality. The SS3000 analyzer delivers precise, reliable measurements using patented Tunable Diode Laser (TDL) technology developed by NASA.
 
The TDL sensor never comes into contact with the sample gas stream. The result is a sensor which does not suffer from contamination or drift due to vapor impurities such as glycol, methanol or amines.
 
The SS3000 dramatically reduces intangible but real costs associated with unreliable gas measurements. By eliminating added processing steps, detecting poor gas quality and the possibility of costly damage to equipment that can result from sensors that produce incorrect data.
 
State of the Art Technology
The analyzer works by shining a laser beam through the sample cell. The laser beam is selected to interact only with the measured compound, creating an absorption signal. The higher the concentration of H2O, the greater absorption of light and the stronger the corresponding absorption signal. Spectrum Software analyzes these absorption peaks to produce very accurate and repeatable measurements. Since the calculation is a direct, fundamental measurement, the amount of H2O present can be measured in real-time.
 
Low Cost of Ownership
Operating costs are dramatically reduced by eliminating the cost of consumables, extra sensor heads, labor and overhead associated with excessive maintenance.
