The SOLA II Flare provides 24x7, on-line, real-time analysis and is the only method tested by the SCAQMD for the purpose of monitoring and recording SO2 emissions. An adaptation of the highly successful SOLA II which has a worldwide installation base, the Flare model offers the unique advantage of two analyzers in a single cabinet. It works around the clock and continuously monitors via a 30-second injection period to provide accurate measurement of flare feed sulfur content.
Based on pulsed ultraviolet fluorescence (PUVF) technology which is known as the most reliable analytical method, the SOLA II Flare offers many advantages including:
- Two independent calibration ranges that allow for two widely varying independent measuring ranges
- Dual PMT power supplies that enable users to set the PUVF sensitivity
- Dual sample injection valves for precise control of the sample size being injected into the system and ultimately the PUVF detector
- Use of less carrier and calibration gases.
Unlike gas chromatograph (GC) systems, the SOLA II Flare continuously monitors and does not experience blind periods that allow for unmeasured flare events. The analyzer also enables actual emission data to be reported rather than engineering or worse case estimates.
