Gas Monitor now Suitable for Controlling Trace Hydrocarbons in Carbon Dioxide

Now optimised to control the level of trace hydrocarbons in carbon dioxide (CO2), the Servomex (USA) SERVOPRO FID maximises the operation efficiency of hydrocarbons removal systems used in CO2 recovery and enables continuous on-line quality control of CO2.

With growing demand for CO2 in a range of applications, a variety of industrial producers - including industrial gas manufacturers, methanol factories, breweries and ethylene oxide plants - are able to recover the CO2 by-product from their processes. The complexity of the CO2 purification process depends on the type of contaminant removal systems used at the raw gas source, this means the quality control system for production output can be highly demanding, while on-line quantification of the trace hydrocarbon level on the final product is essential.

Offering superb sensing capability and comprehensive remote connectivity, the Servomex SERVOPRO FID is the ideal analyser for CO2 recovery operators who need accurate trace hydrocarbon measurement from a single versatile, easy-to-operate unit. Utilising high-performance, low-noise Flame Ionization Detector technology, the SERVOPRO FID offers accurate CO2 measurement and clean operation with a guaranteed 100ppb resolution.

The FID offers full ethernet and internet connectivity that greatly increases remote communication options via a network or an internet browser, as well as monitoring options via a standard 4-20 mA output. With all flow electronically regulated and temperature regulated, the system offers a “Lock Range” facility to allow the operator to fix the unit within a desired range, as well as an automatic ranging feature that changes the measurement parameters according to the impurities it detects. Ease of use is facilitated by a simple and intuitive user interface, enabling users to view values including real time measurements and system status.

With the accuracy, stability and reliability of the FID measurement optimised by a wide dynamic range, fast response time and flexibility of operation, the SERVOPRO FID is the ideal solution for a trace measurement of CO2 on storage tanks, pipelines or individual cylinders.
