The 3050-AP Moisture Analyzer uses Quartz-Crystal Microbalance (QCM) technology to measure trace levels of moisture in gases. It is suitable for applications ranging from ultra-high purity semiconductor gases to natural gas streams with high hydrogen sulfide content.
Measurement and ConversionMoisture concentration is measured directly in ppmv, ppmw, or mass-of-water per standard volume without additional pressure or temperature compensation. The device can convert concentration to dew point temperature using live or fixed process pressure inputs.
Sensor DetailsThe QCM sensor is a quartz-crystal disc coated with a hygroscopic polymer. Changes in moisture absorption alter the mass and frequency of oscillation, providing high accuracy of 0.1 ppmv or 10% of reading.
Sampling SystemThe analyzer provides fast-response and accurate analysis while consuming less than 100 sccm of sample gas. It can operate in sensor-saver mode with a contaminant trap to extend sensor life.

AMETEK PROCESS INSTRUMENTS PRODUCT DATA SHEET 3050-AP Moisture Analyzer Quartz-Crystal Microbalance (QCM) technology: accurate, reliable, durable The 3050-AP measures trace levels of moisture in a gas through the use of a quartz-crystal oscillator sample cell -the industry standard for applications ranging from ultra-high purity semiconductor gases to natural gas streams containing 30% hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Moisture concentration is measured directly, in parts per million by volume (ppmv), parts per million by weight (ppmw), or mass-of water per standard volume, without additional pressure or temperature compensation. To convert concentration to dew point temperature, the 3050-AP can be programmed for a live process pressure input or a fixed pressure. The quartz-crystal sensor The heart of the 3050-AP analyzer is a QCM sensor, a quartz-crystal disc coated with a hygroscopic polymer. As the amount of moisture absorbed onto the polymer varies, the mass of the QCM changes, producing a corresponding change in the frequency of oscillation. The accuracy of the 3050-AP is an amazing 0.1 ppmv or 10% of reading, whichever is greater. Unique sampling system The 3050-AP delivers a fast-response, accurate analysis of the sample gas's moisture concentration while consuming less than 100 standard cubic centimeters per minute (sccm) sample gas. If contaminants are a concern, the 3050-AP can be operated in sensor-saver mode and equipped with a contaminant trap prior to the dryer. This configuration allows the sensor to see the contaminant-free reference gas for an extended period, exposing it to less contamination and resulting in a longer sensor life. Long-term stability and reliability Quartz crystal oscillators are resistant to contamination and inherently very stable, delivering a longer sensor life with more stable, more accurate performance. Hkey benefits • Most accurate trace moisture measurement technology available • Fast response to both increasing and decreasing moisture levels • Specific to moisture in most applications • Provides a much more rugged sensor PH KEY MARKETS • Industrial gas • Petrochemical • Refinery • Chemical
