Monitoring Water in Fuel Gas

Metrohm has introduced the 875 KF Gas Analyzer for fully automated determination by coulometric Karl Fischer titration.

Water is an unwanted contaminant in any kind of fuel gas as it lowers the calorific value and promotes corrosion. Hence, monitoring the water content is most critical, from the drying process of natural gas to any other point downstream. The company’s gas analyzer combines precise sampling with the accuracy of coulometric Karl Fischer titration in a fully integrated, software controlled analyzer.

The analyzer module consists of a robust sampling system with a mass flow controller at its heart. Moreover, the system is equipped with an integral evaporator for liquefied gases, an inlet filter to separate out particles, and an oil filter.
