1.4 Overview
The AMETEK ASOMA 682T-HP is designed for analysis of sulfur in highly viscous hydrocarbons. This
system is ideal for processes where sample pressures are high and in situations where fouling of flowcell
windows with paraffin or similar substances can occur.
The 682T-HP provides continuous, reliable detection of sulfur at pressures up to 35 bar (508 psig). It can
operate either as a stand-alone analyzer or can be tied in to plant-wide automation systems to provide real-time
strategic measurements.
Among the key features of the analyzer are a fully integrated Densitometer (optional), automatic density
compensation, touch-screen controls, password-protected screens, and rapid update rates as frequent as once
per second.
Operation of the analyzer is regulated by an integral PLC. The PLC monitors instrument parameters such as
process temperature, density, and system diagnostics. It also provides a comprehensive suite of alarms and a
standard platform for communicating to a plant-wide DCS. Due to its unique design and robust construction,
the system has minimal, if any, sample conditioning and recovery requirements.
