Fast responding, moisture analyser

Published:  08 January, 2015

michell_TDL-InUse.jpgMICHELL says its new OptiPEAK TDL600 moisture analyser’s fast response and non-contact spectroscopic measurement principle ensures that gas storage companies are able to not only meet demand quickly but also satisfy the contractual standards for moisture content when stored natural gas is withdrawn and injected to the pipeline network.

Storing gas is an integral part of the natural gas industry because the timescales for consumption and delivery do not match the time needed to extract, process and transport the gas.

In order to ensure an uninterrupted supply to consumers, quantities of gas are usually stored underground. The water dew-point temperature or moisture content of the stored gas is measured during the filling (pressurisation) and usage (de-pressurisation) cycles.

Storage pressures of up to 30 MPa require the gas to be very dry in order to prevent condensation occurring.

  • Portable fast response hygrometer  

    MICHELL INSTRUMENTS has announced it has upgraded its compact portable hygrometer, the MDM50, with an extended range and a fast response speed. Featuring Michell’s new SF82 dew-point transmitter, the upgraded MDM50 now offers a measurement range of -60 °C to 60 °C dew point, with an accuracy of ±2%.

  • Versatile dew-point hygrometer  

    The new Easidew Advanced Online Dew-Point Hygrometer from MICHELL INSTRUMENTS measures dew point, moisture content and now also pressure. It features a touch screen interface for set up and operation. Michell developed the Easidew Advanced Online as a versatile, premium-performance hygrometer system. Incorporating the latest Michell ceramic metal-oxide technology, the hygrometer provides stable, reliable and repeatable trace moisture measurements.

  • New laboratory humidity reference standard 

    MICHELL INSTRUMENTS says the new Michell S8000 –100 is a high-precision, low dew-point hygrometer designed to meet the demands of humidity calibration and standards laboratories. Michell says its engineers have used the latest developments in chilled mirror technology to achieve reliable, repeatable measurements of low dew points down to -100 °C, with an accuracy of ±0.1 °C, without the need for additional cooling.

  • New dew-point transmitter  

    MICHELL INSTRUMENTS has launched a new fast-responding dew-point transmitter for compressed air quality: the SF82. In compressor rooms temperatures can easily reach 50 °C, while measurements of dew points below -60°C are required. Recognising this challenge, Michell’s engineers designed the SF82 to operate effectively in these specific conditions.

  • High-precision hygrometers  

    MICHELL INSTRUMENTS has announced it has launched its upgraded S8000 chilled mirror hygrometer range to maintain its position as the world’s most popular and cost-effective family of industrial chilled mirror hygrometers. The first of the new instruments released in April 2018 were the S8000 RS and S8000 Remote. The popular mid-range S8000 Integrale is due to be released in May.
