Kinetics Product

MARS-9000 is an innovative "Modular Advanced Reflux Sampler", and it is designed to condition hot, dirty and/or wet gas samples at the process tap then deliver a reproducible sample to a variety of analyzers, including gas chromatographs and continuous gas analyzer (CGA, MGA-9000 for example), for composition measurement. MARS-9000 takes advantage of simple chemical engineering principles of fractionation combined with controlled sample velocity and temperature differential, it enables analysis of lighter hydrocarbons by removing liquid mist or water, heavy particulates and fine carbons from complex, hot hydrocarbon gas mixtures. Practical for a variety of applications, the MARS-9000 conditions the sample via cooling and refluxing and is ideal for treating condensing matters, polymers and particulates.
