OptiPEAK TDL600 Moisture in Natural Gas Analyzer

Next-generation TDLAS analyzer for automatic online moisture measurement in variable natural gas and biomethane streams.

ModelOptiPEAK TDL600
SKUMI-OPTIPEAKTDL600
CategoryDew Point & Moisture

Key Features

  • TDLAS (Tuneable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy) technology
  • D-MET system factory-ready for varying gas compositions
  • Operating range down to 1 ppmV
  • Sour gas compatible
  • Simple installation and setup with integrated sample handling
  • Lowest maintenance — non-contact optical measurement
  • ATEX, IECEx, UKCA and cQPSus certified
  • Compatible with natural gas containing up to 20% hydrogen

Overview

The OptiPEAK TDL600 is a Tuneable Diode Laser Analyzer employing the latest laser absorption spectroscopy techniques for automatic online moisture measurement in natural gas and biomethane, down to a 1 ppmV operating range. Its D-MET system is factory-ready for varying gas compositions — such as after stream blending or shale gas/biomethane injection into a network — and the non-contact optical technology requires minimal maintenance even in demanding applications like changing methane concentrations or sour gas. It is fully hazardous-area certified and suitable for natural gas containing up to 20% hydrogen with no modification.

Working Principle

A tuneable diode laser is passed through the sample gas and its absorption at a specific wavelength is measured, providing a direct, non-contact optical measurement of moisture content that is largely unaffected by changing background gas composition — including sour gas and varying methane concentrations. Integrated sample handling and 40 years of Michell Instruments moisture-measurement expertise are built into the design to minimize drift and maintenance.

Benefits

  • Non-contact laser measurement avoids sensor fouling common in sour/variable gas streams
  • Factory-ready D-MET handling means less recalibration after blending or biomethane injection
  • Class-leading detection sensitivity supports trace-moisture compliance at custody transfer
  • Integrated sampling system simplifies installation versus building a separate conditioning skid
