Overview

KSA-2500Ex is an explosion-proof UV-DOAS biogas analysis system that continuously measures and monitors the main biogas components CH4, CO2, H2S and O2.

It measures high-concentration H2S with 1 ppm resolution using UV absorption spectroscopy (UV-DOAS), and 2-channel sampling that switches between upstream and downstream of the H2S scrubber allows removal efficiency to be monitored.

It features automatic moisture removal, automatic purge and flow control, stainless-steel sampling lines, an IP65 stainless-steel cabinet and High & Low alarm outputs.
