Solvent choices for infrared testing of oil and grease in water

Water is a very strong absorber in the mi d infrared (I R) regio n where o il is measured. We see the effect of infrared absorbance when a cold bucket of water left in the sun is quite warm by afternoon due to the absorption of infrared energy as heat. When measuring part per million (ppm) oil levels with mid IR, the water absorbs so much of the infrared energy that the signal becomes saturated ...

Flammable Hazards

Flammable Hazards The difference between a gas and a vapor is that vapors arise from liquids, whereas gases are normally in a gaseous state. Flammable vapors present additional sampling concerns ...

Flammability Analyzer System

Operating Temperature: 270°C - 518°F. The Model SNR675 is an industrial strength assembly consisting of a heated flame cell and an integrated controller that continuously measures total flammable vapor concentrations from 0 to 100% of the Lower Flammable Limit (LFL) range. Optional modifications allow the SNR675 to sample low oxygen and inert atmospheres.
