About SOx, NOx, and CO monitoring
Measurement Ranges
- SOx (SO): Typical measurement ranges are from 0200 ppm to 05,000 ppm, depending on regulatory requirements and process conditions.
- NOx (NO, NO): Measurement ranges often vary from 0100 ppm to 01,000 ppm, adjustable based on the expected concentration in the exhaust.
- CO: CO is often measured in percentage values, typically 020%, although some applications may require lower or higher ranges (e.g., 050%).
Detection Methods
- SOx: Commonly measured using UV fluorescence, non-dispersive infrared (NDIR), or electrochemical sensors.
- NOx: NOx levels are measured using chemiluminescence, NDIR, or electrochemical detection.
- CO: Primarily monitored using NDIR sensors or infrared gas analyzers.
Response Time
- SOx and NOx: Generally, response times range from 30 seconds to 2 minutes for real-time monitoring.
- CO: Typically has response times around 15 to 30 seconds.
Accuracy and Precision
- SOx: Typically 1% of full scale.
- NOx: Around 2% of full scale.
- CO: 1% of the measurement range.
Resolution
- SOx: Typically around 1 ppm.
- NOx: 0.11 ppm, depending on sensor sensitivity.
- CO: Typically 0.01% for higher precision.
Operating Temperature
- Generally from -20C to +50C for standard stack monitoring systems, but some applications may require operation in higher temperature ranges (up to 300C with cooling or sample conditioning).
Sample Conditioning System
- Includes filters, condensers, and pumps to prepare samples at high temperatures and humidity, especially in combustion environments.
Data Output and Communication
- Output Signals: 420 mA, RS-485, Modbus, Ethernet for integration with SCADA or other data acquisition systems.
- Data Logging: Systems should have onboard memory and support for data logging, as well as remote data access options.
Compliance Standards
- Should meet standards such as U.S. EPA 40 CFR Part 60, European EN 14181, and local environmental regulations for emissions.
Calibration Requirements
- Automated or manual calibration with span and zero gases (e.g., nitrogen for zeroing, standard reference gases for span calibration). Calibration intervals depend on regulation and analyzer type.
