Precise determination of chlorine in petroleum is critical during refining processes.
Clora®, Clora® 2XP e Sindie®+Cl
Precise determination of chlorine in petroleum is critical during refining processes. Chlorine may poison expensive catalysts and lead to corrosion in areas like the overhead or reactor effluent systems. Clora® benchtop analyzers provide analysis of chlorine concentration in liquid hydrocarbon samples such as aromatics, distillates and heavy fuels, and aqueous solutions. Check out Clora 2XP, offering twice the precision as Clora, to monitor chlorine levels as low as 0.07 in hydrocarbons.
CLora benchtops are compliant with ASTM D7536 standard, and delivers a limit of detection of 0.13 ppm and a dynamic range up to 3000 ppm. Clora is powered by MWDXRF, the same technology found in our signature sulfur analyzer, Sindie. This direct measurement technique does not require gasses or high temperature processes equating to easy operation and minimum maintenance requirements.
Clora offers many features such as extended range with and without catalyst, autosampler, and Accu-flow.
Clora® 2XP Twice the Precision
Clora® 2XP complies with ASTM D7536 method, and is ideal for testing related to catalyst poisoning in reformers, or for sites with fluid catalytic crackers and hydrocrackers. It delivers twice the precision and offers exceptional analysis for the determination of chlorine in liquid hydrocarbon samples such as aromatics, distillates and heavy fuels, and aqueous solutions. Clora 2XP is powered by the same MWDXRF technology as our signature instrument – Sindie®. This direct measurement technique does not require gasses or high temperature processes equating to easy operation and minimum maintenance requirements.
This model delivers a limit of detection of 0.07 ppm and dynamic range up to 3000 ppm (measures catalysts).
Sindie+Cl TWO critical measurements, ONE push of a button, ZERO hassle
Sindie +Cl is a sulfur and chlorine analyzer delivering two critical measurements with one push of a button and zero hassle. It is the ideal solution for refineries and independent labs to certify sulfur levels in finished products and assess chlorine for corrosion mitigation, all with one instrument. Sindie +Cl utilizes a technique known as Monochromatic Wavelength Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (MWDXRF) – delivering exceptional reproducibility. Samples are measured directly, which means it can analyze even the heaviest of hydrocarbons like crude oil or coker residuals without the hassles of boats, injectors, furnaces, or changing detectors. This model utilizes standard XRF sample cups.
MWD XRF Monochromatic Wavelength Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (MWD XRF) utilizes state-of-theart focusing and monochromating optics to increase excitation intensity and dramatically improve signal-to-background over high power traditional WD XRF instruments.
This enables significantly improved detection limits and precision and a reduced sensitivity to matrix effects. A monochromatic and focused primary beam excites the sample and secondary characteristic fluorescence x-rays are emitted from the sample. A second monochromating optic selects the sulfur characteristic x-rays and directs these x-rays to the detector. MWD XRF is a direct measurement technique and does not require consumable gasses or sample conversion.
