Sulfur and Nitrosamine Analyzers

The analysis of sulfur-containing compounds and nitrosamines at low concentrations is a critical step in quality control and assurance throughout the energy and chemical industry. Ubiquitous in refinery and petrochemical products, sulfur containing hydrocarbons and contaminants in concentrations as low as parts-per-billion (ppb) can corrode hardware, and permanently poison expensive catalysts used in downstream processes.

To help manufacturers monitor their processes Agilent Technologies produces a series of Sulfur and Nitrosamine Analyzers that incorporate selective, sensitive detectors to reliably detect trace level contamination. Choose from standard configurations as well as custom analyzers designed to meet your specific quality assurance requirements.

  • Factory configured and chemically tested to Agilent quality standards to ensure optimal performance for analyzing sulfur and nitrosamines in a variety of matrices.
  • Sulfur and Nitrosamine Analyzers include selective detector, column, analytical method, checkout samples, and consumables for monitoring trace level contamination.
  • Includes CD-ROM with optimized retention time locked acquisition method for the specific analysis, application note and quick start guide for faster method development.
  • On-site installation and check out of the Analyzer performance by a factory certified technician confirms that your instrument and application meet Agilent’s analytical performance criteria.
  • System familiarization ensures that your team is “ready to go” with calibration and validation immediately following system installation.
