Overview: The document details the specifications and applications of the Teledyne Analytical Instruments (TAI) Series 6400E, specifically the 6400-TSG and 6400-TSL models, designed for sulfur analysis in various industrial applications. These systems comply with ASTM D5453 and ASTM D6667 standards, offering ultra-low detection capabilities down to 10 ppb of total sulfur.
Specifications: The 6400-TSG model uses a Flame Combustion Converter Module (FCCM) for continuous gas-phase analysis, while the 6400-TSL employs a Quartz Tube Converter Module (QTCM) for semi-continuous liquid-phase analysis. Both models provide a wide detection range from 0-200 ppb to percent levels, with repeatability of ±2% of full-scale and response times of less than 100 seconds for gas and 8 minutes for liquid samples.
Applications: The systems are used in hydrocarbon feed-stocks, refinery fuel gases, natural gas processing, and food and beverage grade CO2 purification. They help in monitoring sulfur content to prevent catalyst poisoning, ensure compliance with environmental regulations, and maintain product quality.
Technology: The UV-Fluorescence detection method is employed, converting sulfur compounds to sulfur dioxide (SO2) for analysis. The emitted light intensity is proportional to the sulfur content, providing reliable and reproducible results.
Features: The systems offer advanced communication capabilities, including 4-20mA outputs, RS-232C, and Ethernet connectivity for remote monitoring and control. They are equipped with diagnostic features, multi-stream sequencing, and purged cabinet solutions for hazardous areas.
Technical Details: The document provides detailed technical specifications, including operating temperatures, power consumption, and utility gas requirements. The systems are designed for Class I Div 1/Zone 1 and Div 2/Zone 2 installations, with optional third-party approved purge systems.
Conclusion: The TAI Series 6400E provides robust and versatile solutions for sulfur analysis in industrial applications, ensuring compliance with industry standards and enhancing process control through reliable and accurate sulfur detection.
