5000 Process Moisture Analyzer

Features

The versatile AMETEK 5000 is a highly sensitive moisture analyzer for process applications where the continuous, reliable measurement of moisture in vapors and gases is required. The 5000 analyzer measures moisture on-line by monitoring the vibrational frequency change of a hygroscopically sensitized quartz crystal that is exposed alternately to wet sample and dry reference gas for 30 second periods. The reference gas is sample gas passed through a molecular sieve dryer to remove virtually all its moisture content.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS

  • Catalytic Reforming
  • Moisture in Olefins
  • Moisture in Natural Gas

OTHER APPLICATIONS
The 5000 provides similar solutions to problems in a variety of other applications, including:

  • Petroleum Refining – reforming; alkylation; LPG; light hydrocarbons; isomerization
  • Natural Gas – cryogenic extraction; transmission stations; storage/distribution; LNG; production
  • Petrochemicals – cracked gas; propylene; butadiene; ethylene
  • Chemicals – fluorocarbon gases; vinyl chloride; vinyl fluoride; refrigerants; reactor gas blankets; methyl chloride
  • Enhanced Oil Recovery – CO2 pipelines
  • Electronics – doping gases; dielectric gases; soldering furnace atmospheres; brazing furnace atmospheres; blanketing gases
  • Metals – annealing furnace atmospheres

Industrial

  • Oil & Gas
  • Chemical & Petrochemical
