Mixing Chamber
The mixing chamber mixes the sample and air before they enter the pyrolyzer.

Dual Measuring Range
All SOLA II Flare systems utilize a dual measuring range configuration. The
dual ranges are achieved by using two sample injection valves to achieve a 100:1
dilution ratio. The two injection valves allow for two completely separate
measuring ranges in the PUVF Detector.

The Low Range uses a 10-port sample injection valve with a 100μ
sample loop and the low measurement range calibrated in the detector.
 The High Range uses a 6-port sample injection valve with a 1μ sample
loop and the high measurement range calibrated in the detector.
The results of the sulfur concentration level being measured by the SOLA II
Flare are selected by the auto-ranging function.
