SpectraSensors SS1000 Portable Moisture Analyzer

SpectraSensor’s SS1000 Portable Moisture Analyzer is a lightweight, easy-to-handle, battery-powered H2O analyzer, used to verify measurements and for spot-checking when other methods provide questionable results. Poor quality measurement results are extremely costly, especially in natural gas pipeline applications. The SS1000 reveals poorly performing sensors, pinpoints high moisture and can be used as a standard for measurement validation.

Benefits

Rapid Response Time:

• Allows for fast, simple operation. The analyzer’s laser and detector take measurements 4 times per second and average the results. These real-time measurements are not hampered by wet-up (absorption) or dry-down (desorption) as with surfaced-based sensors

Reliability:

• Greater repeatability than surface-based sensors
• Not subject to interpretation errors of a chilled mirror

No Interference:

• The SS1000 combines a patented laser with control electronics and “smart” software
• Since the sensor is isolated from the sample gas stream, the analyzer’s sensor heads are not subjected to corrosives or contaminants in the gas

Cost Savings:

• The SS1000 eliminates the cost of consumables, extra sensor heads, factory calibrations, labor, and overhead associated with excessive maintenance.
