The OZONE-IN-OFF-GAS ANALYZER BMT 965OG is part of an ozone analysing system for moist ozone off-gas, typically consisting of the three major components:
• UV-photometric ozone analyser (inside BMT 965 OG)
• Peltier-electric sample gas dryer (DH6)
• ozone resistant sample gas pump (inside BMT 965 OG)
Measuring the ozone content in an ozone process off-gas is not a simple task. Not one process actually equals the other. Usually, the ozone off-gas comes from a reactor vessel at about atmospheric pressure, and has a high dew point temperature equal to, or even exceeding, the ambient temperature. An ozone-resistant sample gas pump is thus needed to bring the sample gas to the ozone analyser and, to prevent condensation in the sample tube, water vapor has to be removed from the sample to reduce dew point temperature below the lowest ambient temperature which could occur.
Using an ozone-resistant sample gas pump has an important advantage: The ozone sample gas can be directed back to the reactor after it has passed the ozone analyser. No ozone destruct is necessary.
Our ozone-resistant Sample Gas Pump SGP-5 has proved its longevity over many years. The unsurpassed simplicity of our Peltier-electric Sample Gas Dehumidifier DH6 makes it ideal for processing moist ozone off-gas prior to ozone measurement (refer to the appendix, Sample Gas Drying“).
