February 13, 2019 - Analytical Systems Keco introduced a Fugitive Emission Control Unit that helps eliminate harmful emissions exiting from analyzers and GC vents to meet environmental compliance.
Through a catalytic combustion process, the Fugitive Emission Eliminator oxidizes the vented sample, converting hydrocarbons to CO2 and water vapor, while maintaining a stable outlet vent pressure to the atmosphere. This process avoids back-pressure on analyzer vents, which can disrupt readings of analytical instrumentation. By utilizing a continuous heat source, the Fugitive Emission Control Unit maintains an oxidation process that is effective on 99% of fugitive emissions.
Designed for operation in Class I Division I, Groups B, C, & D and Zone 1 Temp T3B, Ex Group IIB & H2environments, this fugitive emission controller is constructed of stainless steel, aluminum, and a platinum catalyst. With a package size of 19” high and 3” diameter and weighing less than 10 lbs., the Fugitive Emission Control Unit connects to analyzers and GC vents, even in locations where space is limited.
