AboutRA-915AMNG monitors are designed for continuous mercury measurements in natural gas streams. They are intended for permanent, unattended installation at gas monitoring stations and for rapid on-line analysis to detect concentration changes and to support MRU units and similar applications.
Principle of operationAtomic absorption spectroscopy with Zeeman background correction.
Features and benefits- Direct continuous measurements
- Low detection limit and wide measurement range
- High selectivity
- Long-term calibration stability
- No reagents, carrier or zero gases required
- Automatic zero drift and span correction
- Automatic recalculation to standard conditions
- Automatic control and preventive maintenance functions
- Robust design with low maintenance needs
- Customizable configuration
InstallationThe RA-915AMNG monitors are designed for indoor use or installation in climate-controlled cabinets and can be mounted in a standard 19 inch rack.
Equipment and options- RA-915AMNG Air Mercury Monitor
- Optional flow switching device for multiple sampling points (on request)
WarrantyAll of the Lumex equipment is covered by a 12-months warranty.
