SPECTROSCAN IS - X-ray Absorption Sulfur Analyzer
X-ray absorption sulfur analyzer SPECTROSCAN IS is designed to determine the mass fraction of sulfur, from 0.04% to 6.0%, in the flow of oil / oil products
SPECTROSCAN IS
X-ray absorption sulfur analyzer “SPECTROSCAN IS” is designed to determine the mass fraction of sulfur from 0.04% to 6.0% in the flow of oil / oil products.
Oil enters a flow cell designed for pressures up to 63 bar and flow rates up to 200 L / m, where it is illuminated by X-ray tube radiation, which is attenuated by the oil flow and recorded by a detector. The signal registered by the detector is automatically recalculated, using the built-in computer, into the value of the mass fraction of sulfur.
The analyzer is used for technological control during the transportation and storage of oil, as well as during mixing (copounding) operations, it can be placed both as part of the oil quality measurement unit ( OQI), the oil quantity and quality measurement system ( OQQI), and autonomously.
Structurally, the analyzer is a complete factory-readiness product with a block-modular design and includes all the necessary functional devices to ensure efficient and safe operation.
The capabilities of the device for solving a specific problem require separate clarification.

Benefits of Spectroscan IS
SPECTROSCAN IS is a proprietary development of NPO SPECTRON (St. Petersburg), manufactured using mainly domestic units and components, manufactured in explosion-proof design .
- the analyzer is fully automated and does not require daily maintenance;
- operating temperature from -20 to + 40 ° С;
- the ability to change the measurement time to improve the efficiency of control;
- the analyzer has certificates of explosion, X-ray and electrical safety;
- taking into account the influence of density, water content and chloride salts on the analysis results;
Currently, there are no standardized methods for determining the mass fraction of total sulfur in the flow of oil or petroleum products by the X-ray absorption method.
