X-Stream Enhanced Process Gas Analyzer

What are the additional features of the enhanced version of the X-Stream? Any successful examples to share?

  • X-STREAM XE in ENHANCED due to the following features:

    - on-board data and event logger ... no external logger needed

    - analog inputs (e.g. flow input to calculate emissions in kg/h or to/year)

    - web browser without need of a program for remote control

    - calculator for example NO * NO2 = NOx  as calculated channel

    - PLC on board

    Thanks for the prompt reply.

    I have several more questions with regard to Emerson process gas analyzers:

    1) What are new measuring methods in process gas applications at Emerson?
    2) Can Emerson measure such toxic gases as phosgene (COCl2)?
    3) What is the target for very tough process gases with chlorine up to 100 % or Chlorine and CO in phosgene?

    Emerson Process Gas Analyzer group has added trace moisture and trace oxygen measurement.

    Those are importatnt for GAS PURITY APPLICATION:

    trace H2O: -100 to -10 °C range

    trace O2: 0 - 10 ...200ppm as lowest range ...up to 10.000ppm possible

    Emerson can measure chlorine in very smal and very high concentrations:

    0 - 100 ppm

    0 - 100 %

    We hav edesigned a special corrosion resistant cell to enable the handling of even not complete dry chlorine.

    We hav ealso designed a very special gas-thigt cell for Cl2 or CO in COCl2 due to toxic COCl2

    Our Analyzer provides the highest safety by purging the physical cells and the cell head.

    Emerson can measure phosgene COCl2 in small and high ranges using a special gas-tight cell:

    0 - 100 ppm

    0 - 100 %

    We offer higest safety standard by purging cell head plus cell compartment controlling the purge gas on even smallest leakages.

    Vapor recovery requires the measurement of CH4 and non-methane – can it be done by a photometric measurement?

  • In reply to PYBin:

    A lot of customers do not like to solve this analytical problem with an FID for safety reasons (flame) and handling of supply gases. That is why Emerson has developped a solution with photometers and a cutter in an Ex d housing: XEFD flameproof solution ATEX IECEx approved.

    Mercury isoften used to fill lamps or in dentist laboratory - Can Emerson measure Mercury?

    Yes we can measure mercury at very low and very high concentrations:

    0 - 50 ppb or 0 - 500µg/m3   ... lowest range 0 - 25 ppb

    0 - 1.7 ppm   or 0 - 15 mg/m3

    The first one is used for measurements in lamp filling factories or at dentist laboratories.

    The 2nd one is used for mercury (Hg) filter testing enabling to treat filters with high Hg content and see when Hg is going through.
