Laser gas analysis
Fields of application
The ZSS laser gasanalyser r is designed for waste incinerators, district heating systems, industrial boilers, and chemical plants.
Benefits
The ZSS laser gasanalyser r provides continuous measurement of HCl in flue gases at waste incineration plants and industrial waste disposal facilities; NH₃ in power plants and denitrification systems; and CO, CO₂, and O₂ in steel mills and chemical plants, with an extremely fast response time. Since the ZSS is installed directly on the stack—the duct through which the gas to be analyzed flows (in-situ installation)—gas conditioning is not required. Highly tolerant of dust, the ZSS can be installed upstream of filtration systems, where so-called extractive (sampling) measurement is generally difficult.
