Photometers & UV Analyzers

The Kemtrak FL007 is designed for reliable continuous monitoring of trace glycol, oil, and hydrocarbon contamination in water. Many glycol products are pre-dyed by the manufacturer or can be dyed with a suitable fluorescent marker that can be detected down to parts-per-billion (ppb) concentrations. By continuously monitoring for dye markers in condensate return, drain water, or surface runoff, even the smallest leaks are identified the moment they occur, avoiding costly process disruptions and safeguarding both operations and the environment. Furthermore, mineral oils rich in aromatic content will fluoresce when illuminated with ultraviolet light, with an intensity dependent upon the polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) content of the oil (including fuel oil, crude oil, hydraulic oil, and transformer oil). For non-mineral oils or hydrocarbons low in aromatic content that may not fluoresce, the FL007 utilizes simultaneous turbidity measurement to detect turbid solutions caused by low water solubility, instantly informing the operator. Entrained gas and solids present in the process stream will not fluoresce and therefore do not affect the measurement.
