303B Moisture Analyzer

Features

The 303B offers highly accurate portable measurement of trace moisture in gas streams for division 2 areas. Using an electrolytic (P2O5) sensor, the 303B can be used to monitor nearly all gases. It is compact, lightweight, and suitable for both portable use and permanent installation in Class I Div. 2 areas. With the optional carrying bag and lightweight design, the 303B is truly portable.

APPLICATIONS : The 303B is designed to measure moisture content in gases such as air, nitrogen, argon, natural gas, and others with comparable characteristics. Typical applications are:

  • Monitoring natural gas pipelines and gas treatment processes
  •  Monitoring air humidity in dry boxes
  • Continuous monitoring of atmospheres in simulated space chambers
  • Sensing elements in humidity control systems
  • Monitoring inert protective atmospheres in brazing or sintering furnaces
  • Monitoring moisture in many fluorocarbon gases
  • Constant measurement of batch and continuous driers to assure quality control without the expense of overdrying
  • Monitoring anhydrous batch chemical processes at startup
  • Quality control of transistor and diode backfill gas
  • Instrument air systems
  • Cryogenic processes
  • Radar waveguides
