The SOLA iQ On-line Sulfur Analyzer replaces expensive and time consuming laboratory sampling for measuring total sulfur concentration in refinery products including gasoline, diesel, kerosene, and jet fuel as well as many process gas samples such as Natural Gas, NGL and SynGas. The SOLA iQ analyzer offers an online adaption of ASTM D5453, D6313, D6222 & ISO 20846.
 
Features
  • Measurement ranges from 2ppm to100%
  • Limits of detection as low as 25ppb
  • Intuitive color touchscreen user interface
  • Pure O2 is not required, eliminating the risks associated with oxygen use in a process environment
  • Semi-continuous operation; change in sulfur concentration indicated at every injection cycle
  • Automatic density compensation for ppm sulfur wt/wt measurements
  • Easy access for maintenance and >99%uptime
  • Continuous control of UV light intensity ensures calibration is maintained over a long period of time
