Model 3050-OLV Process Moisture Analyzer
Fast, Reliable PPMV Moisture Measurement
AMETEK’s Model 3050-OLV Moisture Analyzer combines
quartz-crystal accuracy with on-line verification in a costcompetitive package. This highly sensitive moisture analyzer
is designed for applications that require continuous and
reliable measurement of ppmv moisture in gases and vapors.
t An internal moisture generator allows Model 3050-OLV
users to quickly confirm analyzer performance on schedule
or on demand by comparing sensor and system operation
to conditioned sample gas that contains a known amount
of moisture. This ability to self-verify inspires operator
confidence in the moisture analyzer. No other moisture
analyzer offers this on-line measurement verification.
t The 3050-OLV is ideally suited to monitor
natural gas as well as various other industrial
gases. The sensor is not unfavorably affected
by the presence of methanol, process gas
temperature, and ambient temperatures within
its operational limits. It can be used in sour gas
containing up to 30% hydrogen sulfide or 100%
carbon dioxide. The mercury levels typically
present in natural gas do not adversely affect
sensor performance.
t Fast response to changes in moisture levels
enables the 3050-OLV to catch a moisture
problem as it happens. Its accuracy, on-line
verification capability, and repeatability guarantee
that industrial gas specifications are met.
t The Model 3050-OLV’s quartz-crystal moisture
detection technology has been proven to deliver
consistent, reliable and accurate information in
hundreds of long-term applications. The analyzer’s wide
range of operation — the unit is factory-calibrated over a
range of 0.1 to 2500 parts-per-million by volume (ppmv)
— allows users to monitor moisture levels from start-up
through normal process operation.
t The Model 3050-OLV is available in four possible
configurations: black box, NEMA 1 enclosure, Zone 1/Div
1 IP65 and Div 2 NEMA-4X. The black box and NEMA 1
versions must be installed in weather-protected locations.
These can either be general purpose or NEC Class I, Div
2 depending upon configuration. The NEMA 4X systems
are suitable for NEC Class I, Div 2 hazardous indoor or
outdoor areas. The explosion-proof Div 1/Zone 1 versions
are also suitable for indoor or outdoor installation.
