S-Chrome portable gas chromatograph

Portable GC S-Chrome is a compact instrument for sulfur-containing compounds analysis in various media for stationary and mobile laboratories.

S-CHROME BROCHURE

Application

  • Measure hydrogen sulfide and mercaptan mass content, with calculation of mercaptan and total sulfur content according to GOST R 53367-2009 in natural gas;
  • Sulfur compounds analysis, including hydrogen sulfide in high concentrations, in associated petroleum gas;
  • Hydrogen sulfide and mercaptan content analysis in oil and petroleum products, with direct feed of liquid sample into evaporator;
  • Sulfur compounds content analysis in liquefied hydrocarbon gases with dosing with an optional liquid sampling valve.

Structural features

  • Electrochemical detector (ECD), highly sensitive and selective to sulfur compounds;
  • Special input unit with the same dividing ratio for gas and liquid samples;
  • Only air as carrier gas;
  • Integrated carrier gas flow rate measurement device at detector and column discharge (independent gas flow rate setup).

Benefits

  • Analysis of H2S in high concentrations due to a tenfold detector signal attenuation in predetermined chromatogram parts;
  • Short analysis duration (15 minutes to n-butyl mercaptan);
  • Operation is controlled by Analyzer Software installed on external PC;
  • High sensitivity with detection limit from 0.02 mg/m3 (in gaseous phase);
  • No signal “damping” from hydrocarbons;
  • Compact size and low power consumption;
  • Low cost of ownership.

Certification and test results provided

  • S-Chrome chromatograph is listed in the National Register of Measuring Instruments;
  • This chromatograph has been successfully tested in PAO Gazprom, CJSC NNK SANORS, VNIIUS and VNIINP.
