Process Analyzers for Maintenance and Reliability Engineering Workshop

Training Descriptions

Process monitors that measure and transmits information about process analyzer systems. Many of these systems were first developed for Online Analyzers.

Today they are primarily used as continuous on-line analyzers. A process monitoring system usually requires a sample conditioning system, a process analyzer, and one or more data output devices.
Properly designed systems also require overall considerations as to calibration, utilities, sample disposal, safety, and systems packaging.
Process analyzers measure chemical concentrations or physical or chemical properties that can be used as control variables instead of relying on indirect physical parameters, such as pressure, temperature, and inferred data from computer models. Process analyzer systems can provide a significant economic return when incorporated into process optimization and advanced control loops or when used for product quality control.

Analytical instruments used for online chemical analysis of process streams or plant environments are generally called Process Analyzer Systems or Quality Measuring Instruments. Reliable online analytical data is crucial for a safe and efficient operation is not limited to the Oil & Gas and Chemical Industry but also for Pharmaceutical, Power Generation and other industries.

Legislative requirements, economic as well as health and safety, emissions control and energy conservation are setting increasing stringent limits for reliable analyzer data which may result in huge losses or fines to the operating company.

For latter reasons it is obvious that sustainable optimum performance of online instrumentation, sample-handling systems and correct data handling is indispensable which requires continual professional attention from the analyzer engineers and maintenance staff.
To achieve optimal performance a thorough understanding of operating principles, possible interferences and practical skills are key requirements.

In this course complete analyzer systems are discussed while special attention is given to applied sampling systems next to the main types and principles of currently applied Process Analyzers ranging from Physical Properties, online
Chromatography, Water type analysis to the promising future of Spectroscopic type of on-line analysis while advantages and disadvantages are clarified with the aim to enhance the understanding the operational ranges and limitations of each type of analysis system.
