APPLICATIONS:
With its wide-ranging ability to measure H₂S from % levels down to ppb levels, the HG100 range of H₂S process analyzers can be utilised in many process industries, including:
– Natural Gas pipelines
– Reformer recycle gas
– Offshore gas production
– Fuel gas monitoring
– Biogas
– Sour gas treatment plants

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
A reel of paper tape impregnated with lead acetate is exposed to the gaseous process sample in the sample chamber. Hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) in the process sample reacts with the lead acetate, after acidification, to form lead sulphide (PbS), a brown compound that stains the tape. The higher the concentration of H₂S the darker the stain. A focused LED and single photodetector system continuously measures the darkening stain and the analyser reports this as a 4-20mA output of the concentration of H₂S.
Incremental measurements are made on the same spot until saturation occurs when the tape is advanced to a fresh portion of the tape. This avoids the need for frequent zero or span calibrations.
